The Christmas Song Lyrics

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos

Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots, with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight

They know that Santa’s on his way
He’s loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother’s child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly

And so I’m offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it’s been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas to you

And so I’m offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it’s been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas to you

The Family Of God Lyrics

For I’m part of the family,
the family of God.

(1) You will notice we say “brother
and sister” ’round here-
It’s because we’re a family
and these folks are so near;
When one has a heartache
we all share the tears,
And rejoice in each victory
In this family so dear


I’m so glad I’m a part
of the family of God-
I’ve been washed in the fountain,
cleansed by His blood!
Joint heirs with Jesus
as we travel this sod,
For I’m part of the family,
the family of God.

(2) From the door of an orphanage
to the house of the King-
No longer an outcast,
a new song I sing;
From rags unto riches,
from the weak to the strong,
I’m not worthy to be here,
But, praise God, I belong!


I’m so glad I’m a part
of the family of God-
I’ve been washed in the fountain,
cleansed by His blood!
Joint heirs with Jesus
as we travel this sod,
For I’m part of the family,
the family of God.

Yes I’m part of the family,
the family of God.

(THE END)

Beautiful Version: “O Little Town Of Bethlehem” by Gaither Vocal Band

InFeatured, Gospel Music, Headline

Enjoy this popular Christmas carol that was written by Phillips Brooks (1835–1893), an Episcopal priest, then rector of Church of the Holy Trinity, Philadelphia, and later of Trinity Church, Boston. He was inspired by visiting the village of Bethlehem in the Sanjak of Jerusalem in 1865. Three years later, he wrote the poem for his church, and his organist Lewis Redner (1831–1908) added the music. A blessed Christmas season to everyone! Jesus, the reason for this time of rejoicing!

The Gaither Vocal Band was founded in the early ’80s by renowned Christian music leader Bill Gaither. GVB became one of America’s leading southern gospel vocal groups.

O Little Town Of Bethlehem Lyrics

O little town of Bethlehem,
How still we see thee lie!
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by;
Yet in thy dark streets shineth
The everlasting Light;
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight.

For Christ is born of Mary
And gathered all above,
While mortals sleep, the angels keep
Their watch of wond’ring love.
O morning stars together
Proclaim the holy birth,
And praises sing to God the King,
And Peace to men on earth!

How silently, how silently
The wondrous gift is given!
So God imparts to human hearts
The blessings of His heaven.
No ear may hear His coming,
But in this world of sin,
Where meek souls will receive Him still,
The dear Christ enters in.

O holy Child of Bethlehem!
Descend to us, we pray;
Cast out our sin and enter in,
Be born to us today.
We hear the Christmas angels
The great glad tidings tell;
O come to us, abide with us,
Our Lord Immanuel!

Looking For A City Lyrics

Song by Bill & Gloria Gaither

Here among the shadows in a lonely land
We’re a band of pilgrims on the move;
Burdened down with sorrows, shunned on every hand
Looking for a city built above

Looking for a city, where we’ll never die
There the sainted millions, never say good-by
There we’ll meet our Savior, and our loved ones too
Come O Holy Spirit, all our hopes renew

Here in disappointment we so sadly roam
Friends no longer speak one word of love;
O we have found contentment, Jesus promised us a home
And I’m looking for a city built above

We’re looking for a city, where we’ll never die
There the sainted millions, never say good-by
There we’ll meet our Savior, and our loved ones too
Come O Holy Spirit, all our hopes renew

In this land of dangers going here and there
Trusting in the blessed Saviors love;
Tho’ we may be strangers, in this world of care
Looking for a city built above

We’re looking for a city, where we’ll never die
There the sainted millions, never say good-by
There we’ll meet our Savior, and our loved ones too
Come O Holy Spirit, all our hopes renew

Come O Holy Spirit, all our hopes renew

He Touched Me

Song by Bill & Gloria Gaither

Shackled by a heavy burden,
‘Neath a load of guilt and shame
Then the hand of Jesus touched me,
And now I am no longer the same

He touched me, oh He touched me,
And oh the joy that floods my soul!
Something happened and now I know,
He touched me and made me whole

Since I met this blessed Savior,
Since He cleansed and made me whole,
I will never cease to praise Him,
I’ll shout it while eternity rolls

He touched me, oh He touched me,
And oh the joy that floods my soul!
Something happened and now I know
He touched me and made me whole
