Thankgiving morning I turned the car on and heard Christmas music!! Then, 5 minutes later, when I opened the car door at my running park, I was hit with an overpowering smell of pine trees ~ and, said out loud, "Thank you Jesus!" In an instant, I was brought into the Christmas spirit. What a beautiful gift to start out the season ~ Music praising Him for His birth!
With Christmas comes lots of pictures and lots of pages to be scrapped. So, I thought I'd try to give some great sayings for your pages, many coming from some unlikely Christmas music.
The first one for the "Christmas Seasonal Soundtrack" is titled "How Many Kings" from the group Downhere.
(See a video here)
- Use any one, some, or all of the lines in the chorus as a topper or tucked in a little empty spot
- Journal which words mean the most to you and why
- Include the words in the chorus, accenting the words Kings, lords, greats, Gods, and fathers(or any other words that you want to stick out) by using a different color, font, or capital letters
- Reference scriptures referring to Him to as King, Lord, etc.
- Write a prayer of your thanksgiving to Him at the thought of coming "All for me"
How Many Kings lyrics by Downhere
Follow the star to a place unexpected
Would you believe after all we’ve projected
A child in a manger
Lowly and small, the weakest of all
Unlikeliness hero, wrapped in his mothers shawl
Just a child
Is this who we’ve waited for?
Cause how many kings, stepped down from their thrones?
How many lords have abandoned their homes?
How many greats have become the least for me?
How many Gods have poured out their hearts
To romance a world that has torn all apart?
How many fathers gave up their sons for me?
Bringing our gifts for the newborn savior
All that we have whether costly or meek
Because we believe
Gold for his honor and frankincense for his pleasure
And myrrh for the cross he’ll suffer
Do you believe, is this who we’ve waited for?
It’s who we’ve waited for
How many kings, stepped down from their thrones?
How many lords have abandoned their homes?
How many greats have become the least for me?
How many Gods have poured out their hearts
To romance a world that has torn all apart?
How many fathers gave up their sons for me?
Only one did that for me
All for me
All for you
All for me
All for you
I love this band. Thanks for the inspiration. I am starting to see a page develop in my mind!
