[b]Who is He in Yonder Stall?[/b]

Who is He in yonder stall
At Whose feet the shepherds fall?
Who is He in deep distress,
Fasting in the wilderness?

Refrain

[i]’Tis the Lord! O wondrous story!
’Tis the Lord! the King of glory!
At His feet we humbly fall,
Crown Him! crown Him, Lord of all![/i]

Who is He the people bless
For His words of gentleness?
Who is He to Whom they bring
All the sick and sorrowing?

Refrain

Who is He that stands and weeps
At the grave where Lazarus sleeps?
Who is He the gathering throng
Greet with loud triumphant song?

Refrain

Lo! at midnight, who is He
Prays in dark Gethsemane?
Who is He on yonder tree
Dies in grief and agony?

Refrain

Who is He that from the grave
Comes to heal and help and save?
Who is He that from His throne
Rules through all the world alone?

Refrain

[i]’Tis the Lord! O wondrous story!
’Tis the Lord! the King of glory!
At His feet we humbly fall,
Crown Him! crown Him, Lord of all![/i]

Merry Christmas to all!

[b]O Holy Night[/b]

O holy night, the stars are brightly shining;
It is the night of the dear Savior’s birth!
Long lay the world in sin and error pining,
Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope, the weary soul rejoices,
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.
Fall on your knees, O hear the angel voices!
O night divine, O night when Christ was born!
O night, O holy night, O night divine!

Led by the light of faith serenely beaming,
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand.
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming,
Here came the wise men from Orient land.
The King of kings lay thus in lowly manger,
In all our trials born to be our Friend!
He knows our need—to our weakness is no stranger.
Behold your King; before Him lowly bend!
Behold your King; before Him lowly bend!

Truly He taught us to love one another;
His law is love and His Gospel is peace.
Chains shall He break for the slave is our brother
And in His Name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
Let all within us praise His holy Name!
Christ is the Lord! O praise His name forever!
His pow’r and glory evermore proclaim!
His pow’r and glory evermore proclaim!

have forwarded a greeting card to my manager, as a blessing, which contains 'unto us a Son is given' as well as 'shalom'.

then i have got a return greeting card from him, with this blessing 'i hope santa is good to you'

i spoke to the Lord if i am greedy enough santa will never fulfil my wants, not either santa can give me eternal life.

Conclusion: In this culture we live, men are learning to live a superior life by our finite own effort without the help of GOD our LORD, maker of heaven and earth.

Pray that may the LORD starts HIS plans quickly, to up-root the treat of satan or santa everywhere on earth. the plans........

it is a good song, but would it be better to seek blessings or wishings from the LORD.

Be aware of misunderstanding of Hippiness and prosperity or wealth. Proverbs 11:28 'He who trusts in his riches will fall, But the righteous will flourish like foliage'.

Happiness;
Psalm 1:2 But his delight is in the law of the lORD. means happiness is found in studying, memorizing and applying the words of the LORD.

Prosperous;
Proverbs 11:24 There is one who scatters, yet increases more; And there is one withholds more than is right. But it leads to poverty.

This earth is not our home, our destiny and our citizenship is in heaven. Romans 12:2 has the say.
