December 17, 2010

As a child, you hear the story of this family who had no where to stay and think, 'How sad.'  You hear of how angels announced a baby's birth and think, 'This must be one special baby.'  Then you hear how these Maji bearing gifts from a far away land come searching for this child and you think 'What kind of gifts are those for a baby?'   But as you get older, you understand the meaning of each gift.  In the same way, we should grow in to understanding God's great gift to each of us.  But, it all started with this baby.

One King
Written by Borders, Borders and Alexander
Sung by Point of Grace

Kings of earth on a course unknown
Bearing gifts from afar
Hoping, praying,
Following yonder star

Silhoutte of a caravan
Painted against the sky
Wise men searching
For the holy child

One king held the frankincense
One king held the myrrh
One king held the purest gold
One king held the hope of the world

A star hangs over Bethlehem
A journey ends in the night
Three kings trembling
Behold the glorious sight

Heaven's treasure, Emmanuel
Drawing men to bow down
Tiny baby born to wear a crown

One king held the frankincense
One king held the myrrh
One kin held the purest gold
One king held the hope of the world.
