Sing a new song, sing a new song
A collection of varied Christmas praises in song psalm and a poem I wrote. I did not write the song or psalm
A Christmas Psalm
Creation sings a new song to the Lord
Joy to the world, the Lord is come
Let all mortal flesh keep silence
O sing a new song to the Lord
Sing a new song, sing a new song
The royal banners forward go
Wake, awake! for night is flying
Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness

A Christmas Song
Come, thou long expected Jesus,
Born to set thy people free
From our fears and sins release us
Let us find our rest in thee
Israel’s strength and consolation
Hope of all the earth thou art
Dear desire of every nation
Joy of every longing heart
Born thy people to deliver
Born a child and yet a king
Born to reign in us forever
Now thy gracious kingdom bring
By thine own eternal spirit
Rule in all our hearts alone
By thine all sufficient merit
Raise us to thy glorious throne
By thine own eternal spirit
Rule in all our hearts alone
By thine all sufficient merit
Raise us to thy glorious throne
Raise us to thy glorious throne

'Glory to God in the highest,' sang the angels soaring above the Bethlehem fields, to the terrified and then exalted shepherds. They returned to their work making music to the name of the Most High for his love and faithfulness (vs 1-3).(1)
The wise men sensed deep joy at the work of the Lord's hands - the unfailing guiding star leading them to worship in the stable (v 4; Matt 2:9-11).
Mary's quiet heart folded away the extraordinary comings and goings in the stable and pondered: 'How great are your works, O Lord, how profound your thoughts' (v 5; Luke 1:46-55; 2:19).

Christmas=Christ= Savior=Good Friday=Death of Christ =Easter=Ressurection of Christ=Heavenly home=Believers Paradise
This is what believer's Celebrate on Christmas. Or at least what they are supposed to celebrate if they remember.
My Poem:
Jesus God's Splendour
He shines in the splendour
Of His sacrifice
It is the light which
Shines forever
No one or thing can
Douse His flame
Having put sin to death
For all time
Drowning it with
His lifes blood
So that humanity
Can be seen
Through His sacrifice
And found innocent
As the Father in heaven
Sees not our faults
When Creator looks
Upon His people
He sees us in the risen Christ
If we have believed
And believing
Accept the truth
The truth which sets us free
The truth which is the splendour
of His birth and His sacrifice !
