All this month leading up to Christmas, I want to share some meaningful Christmas song lyrics. You can read the previous blog posts for the other Christmas Lyrics.

Christmas Lyrics – December 3rd

Lyric – “the son of God, here born to bleed”

Song (Click the song to hear it) – Emmanuel (Hallowed Manger Ground)

One of the deepest most meaningful parts of Christmas is the truth of why Jesus came. Jesus came to save sinners. Jesus saves sinners by dying on the cross for their sins. Jesus’s blood washes away our sins when we turn to God for forgiveness and trust Him with all of our hearts.

At Christmas time, we remember what this song declares that Jesus was born to bleed.

Christmas Lyrics – December 2nd

Lyric – “Let earth receive her King”

Song (Click the song to hear it) – Joy to the World

When Jesus was born to the virgin Mary that first Christmas morning, there was a lot going on. Mary and Joseph welcomed their first child. A farm stable had a newborn in it. Old Testament prophecies were being fulfilled.

And the King of all Creation had come to us.

God is King! King over everything. In the incarnation, God took on flesh. God became a human. God came to us. Jesus, the King of Kings, came to earth to save us from our sins.

The song says it well, “Let earth receive her King.”
