Anthem for Christmas

This is fast becoming my favorite Christmas song. If you want the Gospel in a nutshell, the essence of the Kingdom of God, the purpose of life, here it is.

Anthem for Christmas

Words: Gloria Gaither
Music: Michael W. Smith

In the space of the beginning
Was the living Word of light
When this Word was clearly spoken
All that came to be was right
All creation had a language
Words to say what must be said
All day long the heavens whispered
Signing words in scarlet red

Some failed to understand it
So God spoke His final Word
On a silent night in Judah's
Hills a baby's cry was heard

Glory! sang the angel chorus
Glory! echoed back the night
Love has come to walk among us
Christ the Lord is born this night

All creation sing His praises
Earth and heaven praise His name
All who live come join the chorus
Find the words His love proclaim

Find the words His love proclaim

The earth was created to glorify Him. We were born to worship Him. We do this by serving Him in everything we do.
