My favorite Christmas carol is O Holy Night. The words and music capture well the magnificence and grace of the evening of our Savior’s birth. My heart melts when the chorus commands, “Fall on your knees”. He is truly worthy of my bow before Him and one day I will meet Him in person on my knees (Isaiah 45:23, Romans 14:11, Philippians 2:10, Revelation 1:17).
Whatever your favorite Christmas carol, I recommend you enjoy listening to the beautiful music of the season of Christ’s birth. Tonight we await the anniversary celebration of His arrival on Earth. The words to O Holy Night appear below. You may want to sing along to your favorite recording.

O Holy night! The stars are brightly shining
This is the night of our Dear Savior’s birth.
Long lay the world in sin and error pining,
Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth
The thrill of hope, a weary world rejoices
While yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.
Fall on your knees! O hear the angel voices
O night divine, O night, when Christ was born
O night, divine, O night, O night divine.
Led by the light of faith serenely beaming,
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand.
O’er the world a star is sweetly gleaming,
Now come the wise men from out of the Orient land.
The King of kings lay thus lowly manger;
In all our trials born to be our friends.
He knows our need, our weakness is no stranger,
Behold your King! Before him lowly bend!
Behold your King! Before him lowly bend!
Truly He taught us to love one another,
His law is love and His gospel is peace.
Chains he shall break, for the slave is our brother.
And in his name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
With all our hearts we praise His holy name.
Christ is the Lord! Then ever, ever praise we,
His power and glory ever more proclaim!
His power and glory ever more proclaim!
In His Service,
Jeff Myers
A servant of Jesus Christ
