When I had children of my own, this song spoke to me like no other. Imagine the grace, perseverance, and endurance Mary must have had in order to share her son with the world. What joy, pride, awe, and unbelievable grief she experienced. We can best honor her sacrifice by honoring her Son, our Christ, every day, in all things. This song was not written until the 1980s, reminding us that the message of Christmas is relevant today, right now. It’s not only a celebration of a one-time event from long ago, but a celebration of the ongoing Joy and Promise of Jesus’s birth. Hallelujah!
