It seems to me it would be impossible to have Christmas without music! I am reminded again of Martin Luther's beautiful quote: "Music, next to Theology, is God's greatest gift to man."
I trust that this little poem by Alice Mason will be a blessing to you as you keep a song in your heart today!
"There shall be music, sweet and clear, calling the reverent worshipers near,
Telling the story in notes and in rhyme of the Child who was born at Christmastime.
There shall be music, soft and light, a lullaby sung on a crisp winter night,
Sweetly angelic like the voices that told of the birth of a King to the shepherds of old.
There shall be music, deep and strong, filling the air with melodious song,
Resonant sounds of gladness that tend to lift every heart to a grateful AMEN!"
