IT’S THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR
Waltz time
VERSE 1: It’s the most wonderful time of the year With the kids jingle belling and everyone telling you “Be of good cheer” It’s the most wonderful time of the year.
VERSE 2: It’s the hap – happiest season of all With those holiday greetings and gay, happy meetings When friends come to call, it’s the hap – happiest season of all.
BRIDGE: There’ll be parties for hosting, marshmallows for toasting, and caroling out in the snow. There’ll be scary ghost stories and tales of the glories of Christmases long, long ago.
VERSE 3: It’s the most wonderful time of the year. There’ll be mistle-toeing, and hearts will be glowing when loved ones are near. It’s the most wonderful time of the year.
Andy Williams made this song popular back in the sixties. I like all the music at Christmas, from the silly Porky Pig’s Blue Christmas to Bing Crosby’s I’m Dreaming of a White Christmas. I like the hymns of the season, too. In the month of December I will use a secular song and a hymn to illustrate a truth.
Joy To The World
Joy to the world, the Lord is come!
Let earth receive her King;
Let every heart prepare Him room,
And heaven and nature sing,
And heaven and nature sing,
And heaven, and heaven, and nature sing.
Joy to the world, the Savior reigns!
Let men their songs employ;
While fields and floods, rocks, hills and plains
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat, repeat, the sounding joy.
No more let sins and sorrows grow,
Nor thorns infest the ground;
He comes to make His blessings flow
Far as the curse is found,
Far as the curse is found,
Far as, far as, the curse is found.
He rules the world with truth and grace,
And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness,
And wonders of His love,
And wonders of His love,
And wonders, wonders, of His love.
It’s the most wonderful time of the year. From toddlers to nursing homes patients the season makes everybody smile. Everybody likes to receive a gift. I heard this quote “it is better to give than to receive”. Try making your children believe it.
How ‘s this fact? God has this plan. Since eternity past God knew the need for a redeemer. The Ten Commandments were impossible to keep. People look on the outside for behavior but God looks at the heart for motive. This Christmas remember God’s greatest gift to you.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world(insert your name) that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him would not perish but have everlasting life.
Joy to the world – the Lord is come. He is the most treasured, most prized gift of all time. Accept the Savior today and get ready to be blessed by the WONDERS OF HIS LOVE.
Celebrate the JOY! SMILE.
I can almost hear the trumpet.
