Christmas Rubies In My Treasure Box

Source:  unskinnyboppy.blogspot.com  via  Lisa  on  Pinterest The Gospel Tree There once was a shining Christmas tree Standing out where all could see. Its brilliance captured every eye And seemed to cheer each passer-by. “The lights are so bright”, they would say And hesitate to walk away. The tree stood proud ablaze with light For every light was burning bright. Then one bulb was heard to say “I’m tired of burning night and day; I think I’ll just go out and rest For I’m too tired to do my best; Besides, I am so very small I doubt if I’d be missed at all.” Then a child lovingly touched the light “Look, mother, this one shines so very bright. I think of all the lights upon the tree This one looks the best to me.” “Oh my goodness,” said the light “I almost dimmed right out of sight. I thought perhaps no one would care If I failed to shine my share.” With that a glorious brilliance came For every light had felt-the same. Our...

Christmas Is All About You Christmas Is Nothing Without Jesus: Empty and vain is the fun. There is not any eternal reason; Without the birth of God's only Son. May this be the song of our hearts dear Lord; So those that are searching will find. To make it all about you dear Lord; May this be the goal in mind. Though We Enjoy The Good Times of Christmas; Whatever's not in faith is sin. When we deck the halls and trim our trees; Dedicate each purpose to Him; And let this be our song to Him. Christmas is all about you, Dear Jesus; Christmas is  all about you. How sweet the sound  of each carol we sing; Because it's all about you. Not packages, not pretty bows, owe no! Not iced cookies with sprinkles. The day you were born, Gods promise was born; One of Your great miracles. Not  sparkling  trees, though we enjoy these; Not tinsels or decking the halls. You, Our  redeemer , were born to change the world...

Source: google.com via Katy on Pinterest It Began On Christmas Day Song-   By: Susan Y Nikitenko Jesus Once A baby in a manger long ago; Was sent to earth from heaven, For  God, He loved us so. God gave us a Christmas Gift that lasts a whole life long; For Jesus died for us, arose, and gave us a song. Jesus was born, Jesus grew, Jesus died, Arose anew. Jesus lives; And He forgives. He made a way. He made a way.... And It began.... On  Christmas day. It was A Merry Christmas to the world on that day; Jesus came to the world to wash our sins away. Jesus once a baby rocked and loved in Mary's care; Now is the Risen Savior that holds us very near. Jesus was born, Jesus grew, Jesus died, Arose anew. Jesus lives And He forgives. He made a way. He made a way.... for  me and you. The promised gift of salvation was given in love; The  sinless Lamb was provided by our God above...

Hallelujah , Hallelujah Angels in the clouds on high; Brighten up the night time sky. Shepherds listening to them sing; Telling of the newborn King. The Shepherds fall to the ground; Frightened by the sudden sounds. Fear not, we come with tidings anew; Christ was born for all including you. Hallelujah , Hallelujah; Our Christ the King has come. Hallelujah , Hallelujah; Gods one and only Son. They find the new born baby; Mary rocking him gently. Joseph standing closely by; While they heard a lullaby. The cows are softly lowing; The star above is glowing. God's presence is all around; Shepherds worship on the ground. Hallelujah , Hallelujah; Our Christ the King has come. Hallelujah , Hallelujah; Gods one and only Son. As the night grows lighter; And the baby lays asleep. I almost hear  Mary sing; Glory to the new born King. Her heart is full of praising; All those around her gazing. Upo...

The Heart Of Christmas   When Christmas bells chime; When Christmas lights shine; We know that your birthday is near When candles are glowing; And outside it's snowing; We know that Christmas time's here. When children are singing; And ornaments swinging; We rejoice in your coming to earth. When we hear the true story; How  you came  from glory;             We celebrate your miracle birth. More than a gift... from heaven; More than a star aglow; More than a little baby; But a Savior we can know. More than a story of old; More precious than valuable gold; More than a day called Christmas; But riches in Jesus untold. He was born to give His life away. He was to die for us one day; For through His blood our debt was paid. This!  The heart of... Christmas day. When Carols are sung; And door wreaths are hung; We know that it's time to prepare. ...

(Back to bridge) Now we tenderly say His name Knowing ours to gain...the Prize! And we walk with Him day by day, Keep the Son shine in our eyes....

Tears....tears...tears....thank God for Christmas! "Very Special Hours" The stars shone down so softly as You slept upon my breast; The hay, within the manger, made a clean, sweet smelling, nest. The moon beams touched your tiny face. I sat enthralled, enraptured, To realize the grace, this night, Such softness had so captured! I wanted so to tell the earth The things I knew were true. I wanted, too, to hold You close; Keep all away from You. We had waited, all expectant, but were Stunned to see Your precious face! Then, shepherds came and we wondered How they found this little place. I want to make this timeless, Never go on to tomorrow, Just hold You close and claim as mine ~ Excluding future sorrow. For change is quick and I just want To hold this night forever, Never come to days apart or Relationships that sever. So, holding close, I'll sing my Baby song to You; Feel You cuddle close and hear The special sounds You do...
