Christmas Tears


Do you have a Christmas song that gets you all choked up inside? All TRUE Christmas songs should do that.

A friend of mine and I were talking about this topic after church yesterday. For him it's The Little Drummer Boy. The little boy in the song had nothing to give baby Jesus so he gave the only thing he had - a drum solo. He gave God the very gift that God had given him. A talent to play.

For me it's What Child Is This? Not so much the verses of the song, but when we sing "This, this is Christ The King" my eyes get all watery. 

Any Christmas song can makes us sad if it is associated with someone who is no longer in our lives. Or perhaps some other sad even associated with Christmas. But tears of joy are something else entirely.

What is YOUR favorite Christmas song? And why? Don't look now but if your favorite Christmas song makes you shed tears of joy that God came to earth as a man to die for our sins, you might just be . . . a Christian.
