I love Christmas Carols. Listening to the Christmas station can get really annoying because of all the junk that they plan in between the classic songs. Who really wants to hear dogs barking to a Christmas tune? But I still love a well done Christmas song. This year the boys are really into singing and learning songs. It is fun to hear them run around the house singing jingle bells. Most of the Christmas carols are way to wordy for them to easily pick up the lyrics too, however they are learning Away in a Manger (which in all honestly is kind of a odd song). There is something to sweet about little kids singing, especially when they are singing about our God.
One of my favorite Christmas Carols is Oh Holy Night. Every year I gain a deeper insight into the meaning of the lyrics behind the songs that we all have heard every year since we were tiny. This year these Lyrics have stood out to me. There words speak to the life we now live, all because of God's gift to us on Christmas.
Truly He taught us to love one another
His law is love and His gospel is peace.
Chains shall He break for the slave is our Brother
And in His name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
Let all within us praise his Holy Name
Fall on your knees
Oh hear the angel voices
Oh night divine
Oh night, when Christ was born
Oh night divine
Oh night, divine
We love you all and are missing many of you this Christmas Season.
