Christmas Series - Day 1 - It's True

This year for Christmas I am taking my love for music and my love for the 25 days before Christmas and I am combining them together.  Each day for the next 25 days I will be posting a non-traditional Christmas song.  It will be a song that has grabbed my attention.  I will try to post a video to go along with the song if one is available. (Please note that not all videos are high quality as it may be the only option available on youtube, but I am focusing on the music and lyrics, and the video is secondary) If not it will just be the audio - I will also try to post the lyrics for you to follow if you would like.  

The first song I will be featuring is by one of my favorite artists, Sara Groves.  It is off her O Holy Night Album and it is called - It's true... it starts with her song - sharing about the angel coming to tell Mary about the child she is carrying.  I can't imagine what it must have been like to hear the news that she hear that day, but more so to be faithful to God and trust that no matter what others thought she knew that God had an amazing plan and He chose her to carry His son, Jesus!  



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 alleluia


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
