Christmas Lyrics – December 1st

December is here, and Christmas is now nearly 3 weeks away. Most mornings, I have been asking Alexa to “play Christmas music” for us as we begin our days.

As the same familiar songs from year after year play in the background of our lives, I have noticed that my children have already learned most of them. Its pretty cool how that works. Generally, most people know most Christmas songs.

So this December, I want to share a lyric each day. Some may be more spiritual than others. All of them will be reflective on life during this holiday season.

Christmas Lyrics – December 1st

Lyric – “Faithful friends who are dear to us, gather near to us, once more”

Song (Click the song to hear it) – Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas  

Christmas is a time of gathering. There are more get-togethers than other times of the year. We are around people more often.

While this may be burdensome and stressful for some people, it is also one of the more special aspects of the holiday season.

Were it not for faithful relationships that God has given us, we would not be where we are nor who we are. Having dear people in our lives is one of God’s great gifts.

For many, Christmas season is one of the few times, if not the only time, we get to see dear loved ones all year.

I have friends from high school, old teammates; I have cousins, and aunts and uncles, and nieces and nephews, and past neighbors, and so on that I have not seen in so long. I miss them. I remember how meaningful they were, and are, to my life. I can even think of some people that I have not seen in years. Christmas is the only chance I will have to see many of them.

May this Christmas season we take advantage of the rare opportunity to re-connect with those who are dear to us.

For this reason, I am thankful for the song lyric “Faithful friends who are dear to us, gather near to us, once more.”

    One of my favorite thing during the Christmas season is seeing old and new friends.
