As we approach December 25 many of us are thinking about what gifts to give to members of our family. We're also enjoying the decorations that are going up around town. We even give thought to what gifts others might give us for Christmas.
As nice as those things are, we ought to remember that even we don't know the exact day of the year Jesus was born, the day is supposed to when people celebrate that He was born. That is why it is good that there are songs that remind us of that.
One such song is O Holy Night, a Christmas carol composed by Adolphe Adam in 1847. As we listen to the words of this and other Christmas carols we hopefully will be reminded of Who Jesus is and therefore why we should celebrate not only His birth, but also His life, death, resurrection, and eternal lordship.
