While the celebration of Christmas may be over the impact of Christmas goes on and influences each day. My friend Tracy sent me this song and said it was one of her favorites, especially at Christmas time. I had not heard it until I clicked on the link! Tracy sent me the one by Travis Cottrell but I noticed that he was "redoing" it from the original so I searched around and tried to find the original artist but alas, the original artist isn't shown singing it - just talking about worship in general. I did find a fave singer of mine doing it so I included that on here as well!
What I like about this song is that in about 4 minutes it gives a brief history of the birth and life of our Savior all within the first minutes of his life. What his Mother and Father could not understand, what the world could not understand but what he knew and what God knew is that he came to die. Yes, all of us from the moment we are born are dying but Jesus truly came to die and not just to be like us but he came to die FOR us. It's hard to grasp, hard to comprehend.
The song doesn't go beyond the moment of his birth but my mind does! Jesus was born in the first light and raised back to life 34 years later in the first light because Jesus is the first light - he is the light that leads the way for the world to find their Creator.
