Christmas is hope.
Christmas is God's love come down to us.
Christmas is a baby, Emmanuel.
It is the first part of the greatest gift ever given.
It is joy to a lost world.
It is the reason we look to the cross.
If there were no miracle
in a baby boy that clear and wonderous night
there would be no way to heaven.
God took the ordinary
and manifested his glory that night.
An ordinary stable,
An ordinary field,
Ordinary shepherds,
A simple manger.
A willing and servant's heart in Mary,
An obedient and compassionate man in Joseph,
A plan so powerful it would change the world.
