Christmas Song of the Day: O Holy Night

This song is one of my mother's favorites. Seeing her face when she hears the song and hearing her sing along has made it one of mine. Often when we went to church you could see a visible change in her when this song was sung. I liked that look. It just seem to radiate PEACE.

O Holy night, the stars are brightly shining.
It is the night of our dear Saviour's birth.
Long lay the world in sin and error pining,
Till he appeared and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices,
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.
Fall on your knees! Oh hear the angel voices!
Oh night divine! Oh night when Christ was born!
Oh night divine! Oh night! Oh night divine!

Chains shall he break for the slave is our brother,
and in his name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we;
Let all within us praise his holy name.
Christ is the lord, that ever, ever praise we.
Noel! Noel! Oh night;oh night divine!
Noel! Noel! Oh night; oh night divine!
Noel! Noel! Oh night; oh night divine!

One thing leads to another - in this case Lionel Richie

Okay still in my midst of my Amy Grant flashback but for some reason (maybe the title) that song reminded me of hanging out at CSUN listening to Lionel Richie's LOVE WILL FIND A WAY. I still think that is an amazing song. Here's a clip so you can listen to it:

Amy Grant

Wow it is amazing to me how one thing leads to another. Watching Oprah (yep I do it from time to time) one of her guests were Amy Grant which reminded me how I use to love an Amy Grant song in my younger years. I even bought her album (yep they were making them then) just because of this song.

So I thought I would see if I could find it on Youtube and I DID! Boy this brings back memories for me



and yep, I still love it. Can't believe I still remember the lyrics
