Relient K ~ I Celebrate The Day
Have you heard this song? It really touched me this morning as I was playing Relient K's Christmas CD. I underlined the points that really stuck out to me. How many times do we start out the new year saying we're going to grow closer to the Lord only to find on Christmas that we are not much closer than we were the year before? And to think that the Lord came here to meet us... to die for us and we push Him aside whether on purpose or because we're too busy to find a few minutes/day to bask in His presence!
I Celebrate The Day
And with this Christmas wish is missed
The point I could convey
If only I could find the words to say to let you know
How much you've touched my life because
Here is where you're finding me
In the exact same place as New Years Eve
And from a lack of my persistency
We're less than half as close as I want to be
The first time that you opened your eyes
Did your realize that you would be my savior?
And the first breath that left your lips
Did you know that it would change this world forever?
And so this Christmas I'll compare
The things I felt in prior years
To what this midnight made so clear
But you have come to meet me here
To look back, think that
This baby would one day save me
And the hope that, That you live
That you were born so I might really life
To look back, And think that
This baby would one day save me
And I, I celebrate the day
That you were born to die
So I could one day pray for you to save my life.
