The Fathers Love

Leave a reply 
He came as a baby in a manger
He left as a resurrected King
His time on this earth was filled with giving
As He gave us a glimpse of the Fathers will

His young life has not much revealed
But the last three years are quite detailed
He walked everyday showing us God’s grace
And He taught us that the Father loved us all

What a life He lived
What a death He died
What a day it was when He arrived
A little baby in a manger
Shepherds came and kings bowed down
To the babe who became our sacrifice

His love was best shown on His final day
When they beat Him and bruised Him so bad
They hung Him on that cross
And we all thought He was gone
Until the stone rolled back and He arose

What a life He lived
What a death He died
What a day it was when He arrived
A little baby in a manger
Shepherds came and kings bowed down
To the babe who became our sacrifice

He healed lepers
He fed thousands
Opened blinded eyes and caused the dumb to speak
He raised the dead
He made water wine
Walked on the water and caused the waves to cease

He healed lepers
He fed thousands
Opened blinded eyes and caused the dumb to speak
He raised the dead
He made water wine
Walked on the water and caused the waves to cease

Miracle after miracle
Just to show us the Fathers’ love

What a life He lived
What a death He died
What a day it was when He arrived
A little baby in a manger
Shepherds came and kings bowed down
To the babe who became our sacrifice

What a life He lived
What a death He died
Just to show us the Fathers’ love
Just to show us the Fathers’ love

This Night

This night is a holy night.  
With the star shining brightly in the sky
Where the child lay
This night is a holy night.  
For the spirit of God has come to stay
In a stable filled with hay.  
It’s a Holy Night

This star is a holy star.  
Shining so brightly in the sky
There to light the way
This star is a holy star.  
Giving light to Mary’s newborn babe
He has come the world to save. 
It’s a Holy Star.
	
All of heaven rejoices, singing hallelujah
Emmanuel has come to earth
Angels ring in His coming on this glorious day
The son of God has come to save

This child is a holy child.  
The angels proclaim His lowly birth
To shepherds in the field
This child is a holy child.  
Kings bearing gifts come from afar
And they kneel before the child.  
He’s a Holy Child.
	
Lift up your voice and sing praise to the newborn king
Good will to man and peace on earth He brings
Join with the chorus as angels sing
Praises to the King.  Sing praises to the King!

All of heaven rejoices, singing hallelujah
Emmanuel has come to earth
Angels ring in His coming on this glorious day
The son of God has come to save

All of heaven rejoices, singing hallelujah
Emmanuel has come to earth
Angels ring in His coming on this glorious day
The son of God has come to save
The son of God has come to save4
The son of God has come to save

Glory to God

Whoever saw an angel choir singing in the sky
Glory, glory, glory was their anthemic cry
Peace on earth, goodwill to man they sang throughout the night
‘Twas a concert for the ages and one amazing sight

They didn’t come to kings or men of royalty
Nor did they come to men who had wealth beyond degree
They didn’t come to priests or prophets of the day
They didn’t even come to those who were men of great fame

They came to lowly shepherds tending flocks all through the night
Common men who worked real hard and were mostly out of sight
These shepherds saw the angel and were filled with awesome fright
Until the angel said do not fear we bring delight

For unto you a child is born, he Savior of the world
Go and find the child wrapped in clothes and laying still
You’ll find Him in a manger in little Bethlehem
Then the great angelic choir began

Glory to God in the highest
Peace on earth, goodwill to men
Glory to God in the highest
Peace on earth, goodwill to men
Glory to God in the highest
Peace on earth, goodwill to men
Glory to God in the highest
Peace on earth, goodwill to men

What a sight for those shepherds to behold
They ran to the manger and bowed
I can see the tears streaming from their eyes
As they were the first to realize
The long-awaited Messiah had come
And they were the first to know
And they sang the song the angels had told

Glory to God in the highest
Peace on earth, goodwill to men
Glory to God in the highest
Peace on earth, goodwill to men
Glory to God. Glory to God.  
Glory to God in the highest
Glory to God. Glory to God.  
Glory to God in the highest

Come to the Star

I couldn’t believe my eyes.
There it was,
shining so brightly in the Eastern sky.
A radiant star,
one never seen before.
Brighter than the greatest star,
brighter almost than the moon,
high in the sky.
I knew it was a sign.
A sign of the coming King.
A sign of a great leader.
A sign we had looked for since time began.
I had to go.
Go to that star,
go to where it pointed
because I knew the ancient texts.
They said a Messiah would come to save His people.
And not just his people,
but all people
all races, kindred and tribe.
The ancient text said he would be a wonderful counselor,
a mighty God,
an everlasting Father,
a prince of peace.
They said the increase of his government and peace would have no end.
I had to see this child.
this wondrous child,
this destined child.
I could not go without a gift,
A gift worthy of a king.
Gold would be my gift to the child

I sent word two of my allies.
When word came back,
They also had seen the star.
They also knew it’s meaning.
They also would make the trip.
One reminded me that he would be a priest to his people
A priest like no other.
A priest who would wash away their sin.
A priest who would make their stony hearts flesh.
He was brining frankincense
In remembrance of the anointing oil for priests.
The other remembered that he would die,
He would die a horrible death,
The death of the Roman cross.
He would be led like sheep to the slaughter
He would be wounded for our transgressions,
bruised for our iniquities,
the chastisement of our peace would be upon him,
and by his stripes we would be healed.
That King brought myrrh,
the anointing oil of death.
The journey would be long and arduous,
but we had to go see this child.

We wondered to each other why others were not going with us?
Why did they not see the star?
Why did they not know the ancient text?
Why did they not realize what was happening?
We realized among ourselves that some refuse to see,
they refuse to acknowledge a king has come.
They do not want to be responsible to someone higher than themselves.
They do not desire accountability to such a Messiah.
Others are blinded to the meaning of the star.
They need someone to tell them,
to show them the way,
to lead them to the star.
How about you,
the reader of our story here.
Have you seen the star?
Will you follow its course?
Will you come to the Savior?
Can I help you understand?
Can I help you see?
Do not wait,
today is the day of salvation.
Come to the star today,
before it is too late


Let There Be Light

God said let there be light and there was light
Shining so bright in the night
Just a little star shining all alone
Told the world a king had been born

It seemed like an anomaly, that lonely little star
Shining brightly in the Eastern sky
But three kings got together and talked amongst themselves
And started to ask the question why?

Why did this star appear and shine so bright?
Why did it seem to call them in the night?
Why was it so peaceful and calm?
What could it be that caused this star to shine?

As they talked, they remembered prophecy
Of a child who would one day be a king
They knew this star was new and bold that night
So, they set out to see why it was so bright

They decided since a king they might just greet
Gifts to honor him would be the proper thing
They brough gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh
In their heart they knew this was a glorious birth

God said let there be light and there was light
Shining so bright in the night
Just a little star shining all alone
Told the world a king had been born

Those three kings came and worshipped
They bowed before the child
They offered up their gifts
To the child in the hay

Gold for His majesty
Frankincense for a priest
Myrrh for sorrow in Mary’s heart
These gifts they would impart
And they sang a song of praise

Glory, glory, glory
Glory, glory, glory
Glory, glory, glory to the King of Kings
Glory, glory, glory
Glory, glory, glory
Glory, glory, glory to the Lord of Lords
Glory, glory, glory
Glory, glory, glory
Glory, glory, glory to the king born that day

God said let there be light and there was light
Shining so bright in the night
Just a little star shining all alone
Told the world a king had been born 

God said let there be light and there was light
Shining so bright in the night
Just a little star shining all alone
Told the world a king had been born

Just a little star shining all alone
Told the world a king had been born

You’ll Find Him Near

I was walking down the street 
In Bethlehem one day
There were crowds of people all around
And I found no place to stay

I walked a little further
To find a place to lay
And what did I discover
But a baby in some hay

The mother was so happy
The father was in awe
Then shepherds came and worshiped
And I just sat and thought

Who is this little child
That Shepherds came and saw
I asked them why they came
And their story hit me hard

They said they saw an Angel
And He said they should not fear
That a child had been born
The Messiah had appeared

And then a band of Angels
They sang be of good cheer
Go and greet the child
You will find Him really near

When I heard their story
I bowed my head and prayed
If this is the Messiah
I had to change my ways

I knew that He was coming soon
And He will come to save
So I prayed for Him to touch me
When He grew in power and grace

He's coming back again my friend
And it could be any day
If you have not accepted Him
Be sure your not too late
Ask Him in your heart today
A simple prayer's the only way
And He will wash your sins away
Be born again today


Can It Be?

A little child in a manger
Shepherds came to give Him praise
His Fathers son, born of a virgin
Kings brought gifts from far away

A star appeared in the heavens
The angels sang of peace on earth
The glorious King of all the heavens
Had now arrived through human birth

On this Christmas day we sing glory
On this Christmas day we sing worthy
On this Christmas day we sing Holy
Holy is the child born today

Can it be that the King of glory
Could become a mothers child
Can it be that the Lord of nations
Would be lowly, meek and mild

I bring praise to the Lord for what He has done
He has given up His royal throne
I bring gifts of my body, soul, and mind
I ask Him to make me His own

On this Christmas day we sing glory
On this Christmas day we sing worthy
On this Christmas day we sing Holy
Holy is the child born today

Can it be He will heal me
Can it be He will save me
Can it be He will give me new life
Can it be He’ll deliver me
Can it be He’ll redeem me
Can it be He will be my sacrifice

Taking all of my sin, this babe in a manger
Will be hung on that cross of shame
He will give up His life and forgive me
Then He’ll rise to His throne again
Forever more to reign

On this Christmas day we sing glory
On this Christmas day we sing worthy
On this Christmas day we sing Holy
Holy is the child born today

On this Christmas day we sing glory
On this Christmas day we sing worthy
On this Christmas day we sing Holy
Holy is the child born today
Can it be He will heal me
Can it be He will save me
Can it be He will give me new life
Can it be He’ll deliver me
Can it be He’ll redeem me
Can it be He will be my sacrifice

Yes, it can
Yes, it can
Yes, it can

Don’t Take the Cross Out of Christmas

I am sure that the angel were stunned
To see the throne empty that day
When the Son of God came down from heaven
And became a mere mortal babe

He created all things by His power
He provided all things man would need
But now in His greatest assignment
He came down to die on a tree

Don’t take the cross out of Christmas
He died on a tree meant for me
Don’t take the cross out of Christmas
It was there that He set me free

I cannot understand His mercy
Nor the thought of His amazing grace
They were offered when He came from heaven
To be nailed to a cross in my place

Don’t take the cross out of Christmas
He died on a tree meant for me
Don’t take the cross out of Christmas
It was there that He set me free

His story was from the beginning
The blood of the Lamb must be shed
He suffered and died
As my sacrifice
Now I’ll praise Him with all of my breath

Don’t take the cross out of Christmas
He died on a tree meant for me
Don’t take the cross out of Christmas
It was there that He set me free

My Resting Place

In the quiet of the night, I wait for you
To bring rest to my body and mind
I have worked hard all day long
I just need to settle down
And my bed seems to be calling out my name

I lie down on the soft and cozy sheets
I pull my covers up over my head
The warmth that covers me
Feels so comforting
And I fall into a deep and restful sleep

You are my resting place
Safe from the storms of life
I can find peace of mind
Only in your arms.  Only in your arms
You are my resting place
I need a moment with you
After a long hard day.
My body needs rest
And my heart needs to rest in you

You said you are with me forever
That your love will always endure
I can’t go on alone.
I need to know your there
And that you will come and bring me rest

Rest from my hurts. Rest from my pains
Rest from my sorrows. Resting in faith
Rest from my doubts. Rest from my tears
Rest that is with me all through the years
Rest from my trials. Rest from my tests
Rest from the turmoil my soul travels through
Resting in you, Lord.  Resting in you
No place is more comforting

You are my resting place
Safe from the storms of life
I can find peace of mind
Only in your arms.  Only in your arms
You are my resting place
I need a moment with you
After a long hard day.
My body needs rest
And my heart needs to rest in you

Resting in you, Lord.  Resting in you
No place is more comforting
Only in your arms.  Only in your arms
My heart needs to rest in you

So Few

He was born in a stable in little Bethlehem
Laid in a manger sleeping on the hay
Angels beckoned shepherds and kings from other lands
To see the Son of God that day

What they all knew is that He was born a King
Despite the surroundings they could see
Mary and Joseph knew glad tidings He would bring
The Son of Man would show the way

Oh, what a blessing
Oh , what an honor
Oh, what a solemn call it is
So few had come to the baby born that night
So few knew Him as a King

Today we decorate with lights and candy canes
Presents are set under a Christmas tree
But there are so few that really recognize the day
As a day they celebrate their King

They think He’s a prophet or a teacher of great truths
They think He’s a wise man with a gift
Some even think He’s a fable and never really lived
Oh how wrong they are to miss the King

Oh, what a blessing
Oh, what an honor
Oh, what a solemn call it is
To be among the few who call this baby King
So few make Him Lord of their lives

So few bow down to the baby born that night
So few know the Savior has arrived
So few recognize He came to give His life
So few will bow before His throne

Oh, what a blessing
Oh, what an honor
Oh, what a solemn call it is
To be among the few who call this baby King
So few make Him Lord of their lives

The shepherds Knew the story
The wise men knew the story
Mary and Joseph knew the story
Do you?
