REFLECTING ON CHRIST'S BIRTH

Have you ever wondered what Mary and Joseph felt as they raised the Son of God? The Bible doesn't tell us much about them, although this verse gives us a little insight. "But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart." Luke 2:19

I want to share these two songs with you and wish each of you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Joseph's Song

How could it be this baby in my arms
Sleeping now so peacefully
The Son of God the angels said
How could it be?

Lord, I know he's not my own
Not of my flesh, not of my bone
Still fatherless this baby be
The son of my love

Father, show me where I fit into this plan of Yours
How can a man be father to the Son of God?
Lord, for all my life I've been a simple carpenter
How can I raise a king? How can I raise a king?

He looks so small His face and hands so fair
And when he cries the sun just seems to disappear
But when he laughs it shines again. How could it be? 

Joseph's Song

Mary, Did You Know?

Mary, did you know that your baby boy would one day walk on water?
Mary, did you know that your baby boy would save our sons and daughters?
Did you know that your baby boy has come to make you new?
This child that you delivered would soon deliver you...

Mary, did you know that your baby boy would give sight to a blind man?

Mary, did you know that your baby boy would calm the storm with his hand?

Did you know that your baby boy has walked where angels trod?

When you kiss your little baby, you kiss the face of God...

The blind will see, the deaf will hear, the dead will live again.
The lame will leap, the dumb will speak the praises of the lamb.

Mary, did you know that your baby boy is Lord of all creation?
Mary, did you know that your baby boy would one day rule the nations?
Did you know that your baby boy is heaven's perfect lamb?
This sleeping child you're holding is the great I AM...

Mary, Did You Know?
