General Question
During this Christmas season does your home avoid Christmas songs and music that reference Christ or all Christmas songs and music?
Does your house avoid all Christmas songs or just songs like ”Silent Night, Holy Night”, ”Oh Holy Night”, ”Hark the Harald Angels Sing” because of passages like these?
O holy night!
The stars are brightly shining
It is the night of the dear Savior’s birth!
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
Let all within us praise His holy name
Hark the herald angels sing.
Hark the herald angels sing
”Glory to the newborn King”
Christ by highest heav’n adored
Christ the everlasting Lord!
Late in time behold Him come
Offspring of a Virgin’s womb
Veiled in flesh the Godhead see
Hail the incarnate Deity
Pleased as man with man to dwell
Jesus, our Emmanuel
Hark! The herald angels sing
“Glory to the newborn King!”
Silent Night
Silent night, holy night, shepherds quake at the sight,
Glories stream from heaven afar, heavenly hosts sing
Alleluia.
Christ the Savior is born,
Christ the Savior is born.
Silent night, holy night,
Son of God, love’s pure light,
Radiant beams from
Thy holy face, with the dawn of redeeming grace,
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth,
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth.
