“Who among us will celebrate Christmas correctly? Whoever finally lays down all power, all honor, all reputation, all vanity, all arrogance, all individualism beside the manger; whoever remains lowly and lets God alone be high; whoever looks at the child in the manger and sees the glory of God precisely in his lowliness. Dietrich Bonhoeffer”
Love incarnate wrapped in flesh
Heaven bent to dwell with us
Oh what a mystery
Oh what a mystery
The sacred gift to break the curse
The Father's heart revealed to us
Oh what a joyous thing
Oh what a joyous thing!! (Lyircs From Adore Him Paul McClure)
Truly there was never a subject of sweeter song than this—the stooping down of Godhead to the feebleness of manhood. Worthy of peerless music is the fact that “the word was made flesh and dwelt among us.” There is no longer a great gulf fixed between God and his people; the humanity of Christ has bridged it over. We can no more think that God sits on high, indifferent to the wants and woes of men, for God has visited us and come down to the lowliness of our estate.” SPURGEON
