Favorite Christmas Song

I just had to do a post about my most favorite Christmas song. It is pretty new but I absolutely adore it. If I could sing soprano don't you know, I would be belting this one at in church praising God! It says so much about the Christmas story. I know that Jesus is the only reason for this season! I believe!!! Read it and try to find it to listen too, it is amazing!

Natalie Grant - "I Believe"

In a land far away
Time stood still
Long ago
There were shepherds in fields
Or at least this is how
The story goes
The story goes

Woman with child
And a man with no room
Born in a manger
Foretelling a tomb
This is how
The story goes

But it is more than a fable
And it’s more than a fairytale
And more than my mind can conceive

I believe
The Wiseman saw
The baby born the angels called the son of God
Heaven’s child
The great I AM
Born to take away my sins through nailed pierced hands
Emmanuel has come
I believe

Two thousand years
Still the story lives on
God’s gift to us
Sent to earth
Wrapped in flesh
His only son
His only son

And the heartbeat of heaven
Confounded our wisdom
But it’s still the simple truth
That sets me free

I believe
The Wiseman saw
The baby born the angels called the son of God
Heaven’s child
The great I AM
Born to take away my sins through nailed pierced hands
Emmanuel has come
And I believe

Precious child
How can it be that
God’s great plan
For hisstory
Would send you to
The lonely tree
That you would die
For one like me

I believe
In a cross
I believe he came for one, he came for all
Heavens child became a man
Gave his life for me in spite of all I am
I believe

I believe
Oh I believe
Christmas lives in me
I believe
