Today, three days before Christmas night, we go back to a classic. This is Hillsong beautifully singing Oh Holy Night.
Our celebration of Christmas is a prayer in itself–the greatest prayer of all, in fact. So all we can really do is celebrate it with hearts full of thanksgiving. While you listen to this song, try to imagine yourself being with all the people you love (specially those who are not physically with you anymore), and imagine thanking them for everything they have done for you. Be as specific or as general as you’d like. End this time of contemplation with a Glory Be.
Oh Holy Night!
Oh holy night!
The stars are brightly shining
It is the night of the dear Savior’s birth!
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
Till he appear’d and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn!
Fall on your knees
Oh hear the angel voices
Oh night divine
Oh night when Christ was born
Oh night divine
Oh night divine
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
Christ is the Lord
Oh praise His name forever
His power and glory ever more proclaim
Oh night divine
Oh night when Christ was born
Oh night divine
Oh night divine
Led by the light of Faith serenely beaming
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming
Here come the wise men from Orient land
The King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger
In all our trials born to be our friend.
