Regardless of when Jesus was actually born, it’s a good thing to celebrate the birth of Jesus! Christmas is a great time to praise, worship and give honor to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ – the Savior of the world!
Pastor Dewey Moede and I agreed that sharing a mixture of modern and traditional Christmas songs is in order for this season! So, from December 14, 2022 through Christmas Day, I’ll post articles with videos or audio-videos of some great and worshipful Christmas-themed songs.
For Day 8, here is for KING & COUNTRY performing O Come, O Come Emmanuel. This is a beautifully written and produced arrangement. Powerful! If you would like to learn more about this group, the for KING & COUNTRY website may be viewed HERE. I hope you enjoy and maybe even sing along with O Come, O Come Emmanuel!
Here are the lyrics:
O come, O come, Emmanuel
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appears
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel
O come, Thou Day-spring, come and cheer
Our spirits by Thine advent here
And drive away the shades of night
And pierce the clouds and bring us light
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel
O come, Thou Key of David, come
And open wide our heavenly home
Make safe the way that leads on high
And close the path to misery
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel
And, for those of us who remember the joy of Christmas from our youth, who can forget Alvin and The Chipmunks?
Here is, perhaps, the most famous song recorded by “Alvin and The Chipmunks” – All I Want For Christmas (Is My Two Front Teeth)!
Here are the lyrics:
All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth
My two front teeth
See my two front teeth
Gee, if I could only have my two front teeth
Then I could wish you Merry Christmas
It seems so long since I could say
Sister, Susie sitting on a thistle
Gosh, oh gee, how happy I’d be, if only I could whistle
God bless you all! Keep smiling and hopefully you’ll come back to FGGAM’s website tomorrow and join me for some new Christmas music on Day 9. Only four more days until Christmas!
