Behold

This Christmas CD is by far the most powerful, worshipful album I have ever heard. Andrew Peterson wrote all the songs himself, as you listen to him tell the "old, old story of the power of death undone by an infant born of glory." POWERFUL lyrics. I went the concert last year and cried all the way through it was just so beautiful.

Thought I'd share one of my favorites with you: Go down to the right and pause the music player!!


Lyrics:
Gather round, ye children come
Listen to the old, old story
Of the power of death undone
By an infant born of glory,
Son of God, Son of Man

Gather round remember now
How creation held its breath
How it let out a sigh and filled
Up the sky with the angels
Son of God, son of man

So sing out with joy for the brave little boy
Who was God and He made himself nothing
Well he gave up his pride and he came here to die like a man

Therefore god exalted him
To the place of highest praises
And He gave Him a name above every name
That the very name of Jesus
Son of God, Son of Man

So in heaven and earth and below every knee would bow in worship every tongue would proclaim Jesus He reigns with the angels


Jesus came here to this earth for US, His children. So amazing!
Be blessed!

Ok, I love that it says The True Tall Tale. That is so fantastic. I was JUST thinking about that about how people talk about fairy tales as being false, but in reality, has there ever been a fairy tale wilder than the true myth of the gospel?! I mean, a dragon defeated by the death a God in the form of a baby- come ON! So so so incredible. And beautiful.

Merry Christmas Molly!
