Christmas Eve.
The night of anticipation.
The finale of this long winter wait.
The hushed and yet joyful celebration of Jesus's birth.
A simple song that tells the story ... and assures us that it's true.
(You really should hear it for yourself ... her little boy's voice is so sweet. As are his words.)
It's True
by Sara Groves
In your heart you
Know it's true
Though you hold no expectation
In the deepest part of you
There's an open hesitation
But it's true
Kingdoms and crowns
A God who came down to find you
It's true
Angels on high
Sing through the night alleluya
Heard it told you
Think it's odd
The whole thing fraught with complication
The play begins with
Baby God
And all His blessed implications
But it's true
Kingdoms and crowns
A God who came down to find you
It's true
Angels on high
Sing through the night alleluia
Alleluia, alleluia
Oh it's true
Kingdoms and crowns
A God who came down to find you
It's true
Angels on high
Sing through the night alleluia
Alleluia ... Praise be to God.
Praise be to God that He knew our need for a Savior.
Praise be to God that He willingly gave His Son for us.
Praise be to God that He has redeemed us.
Praise be to God that He has called us friend.
Praise be to God that it's true.
