"Joy To The World."
This time of year is full of those seasonal songs that bring back memories of years past, family traditions, and the whole 'spirit' of Christmas thing. But as this Christmas season ramps up to its eve, I suggest we take some time to consider the great theology of those old carols and hymns that have become such perennial staples in our lives. Songs like, "Silent Night," "O Holy Night," and "Joy To The World" are just brimming with theology about the distinct and certain significance of Christmas and we would do well to, as we are singing these carols this year, to really think about the reality of the words and to ponder on the great gift of grace that was given to us in Christ!
