Behold The Lamb

December 25, 2014 by Michelle Filed Under: Life Leave a Comment

On this blessed Christmas morning I’m hanging out with sweet Eliza Jane.  She decided to be my alarm clock at 4:50am and now we’re just having girl time before the fellas wake up and it gets loud. 🙂

While I was pondering what to write for Christmas, last night at our Christmas Eve service, it hit me.Christmas

Several years ago I had the wonderful privilege to go see Andrew Peterson’s “Behold the Lamb of God” with some dear friends.  And while the entire show was just simply amazing, there is one song that continues to stick out in my mind.  And even more so now that I have two babies of my own.

With this song I wish you all a Merry Christmas; may you always remember the true meaning of Christmas.

Labor of Love

It was not a silent night

There was blood on the ground

You could hear a woman cry

In the alleyways that night

On the streets of David’s town

And the stable was not clean

And the cobblestones were cold

And little Mary full of grace

With the tears upon her face

Had no mother’s hand to hold

It was a labor of pain

It was a cold sky above

But for the girl on the ground in the dark

With every beat of her beautiful heart

It was a labor of love

Noble Joseph at her side

Callused hands and weary eyes

There were no midwives to be found

In the streets of David’s town

In the middle of the night

So he held her and he prayed

Shafts of moonlight on his face

But the baby in her womb

He was the maker of the moon

He was the Author of the faith

That could make the mountains move

It was a labor of pain

It was a cold sky above

But for the girl on the ground in the dark

With every beat of her beautiful heart

It was a labor of love

For little Mary full of grace

With the tears upon her face

It was a labor of love
