Merry Christmas everyone! I hope you are healthy, happy and excited to spend time with loved ones as well as celebrate the greatest Gift ever given.
On Thursday, I plan to share some cool insights into some of the real reasons Jesus came, but right now I thought I would do something a little different.
I am currently working on the tracks for a brand new song that I plan to perform with my girls EVanna and Susan on Christmas Eve at our Candlelight Communion Service. I thought for today’s blog I would give you a sneak peek at the words. I hope you enjoy!
VERSE 1
In the opulence of Heaven
God’s heart began to stir
When cries of desperation
from earth were clearly heard
He surveyed our situation
and did not hesitate
Without His intervention,
He knew death would be our fate
VERSE 2
He searched though all the universe
A champion to find
Who was worthy to bring salvation
to all of human kind
When none was found to meet the need
Sadness filled the timeless span
But all at once someone stepped-up,
It was God, the Son of Man
VERSE 2
He exchanged his royal finery
For a manger filled with hay
A chalice made of gold
Became a cup of clay
New life He gladly gave to us
Healing flowed at His command
When Satan claimed us as His Prize
Jesus offered His own hands
CHORUS
He came to save
He came to serve
He was the perfect, willing sacrifice
The union of Gold and Myrrh
He came to love
He came to give
In death He paid the ransom
So you and I could live
He Came
BRIDGE
The true power of His coming
Was yet to be made known
The baby in the manger
Would regain His rightful throne
Though satan whipped and mocked Him
A thorny crown upon His head
He crushed sin, death, Hell, and the grave
When He rose up from the dead
