You must admit there are lots of Christmas songs out there. For over a month, the radio stations have been playing the same Christmas songs over and over and over. Some good, some not so good. I really don't care if I hear "Grinch", or "Christmas Shoes" or "Here Comes Santy Claus" (and yes I spelled that correctly. It's the country version.) again this year.
This morning I was reading Mary's Song from Luke 1:46-55. I don't know the tune, but here are the lyrics.
"My soul glorifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior,
for He has ben mindful of the humble state of his servant.
From now on all generations will call me blessed,
for the Mighty One has done great things for me--holy is His name.
His mercy extends to those who fear him, from generation to generation.
He has performed mighty deeds with his arm;
He has scattered those who are proud in their inmost thoughts.
He has brought down rulers from their thrones but has lifted up the humble.
He has filled the hungry with good things but has sent the rich away empty.
He has helped his servant Israel, remembering to be merciful
to Abraham and his descendants forever, even as he said to our fathers."
This is a song that I will never get tired of hearing.
