Christmas Music
My brother, Alan, and I recently recorded a song that he is going to use in his Christmas Dinner Theatre at his church. I thought you might like to hear it! I love to hear Alan sing and was privileged to sing with him for this event. The song is called “The House That Hope Built.” Click on this link to hear the song: http://www.box.net/shared/ovgik3dpqi . The lyrics are included below. Hope you enjoy it!
PS – The photo above was taken when Victoria was about to be born in March 2008. Even though I look terrible, Alan and Mandy look great! They were there during such a pivotal time in my life and I’m so thankful to have them in my life!
House That Hope Built
Verse 1
There was frost out on the window and snow lay on the ground
But inside the house was darkness no comfort could be found
No laughter warmed the season for each heart was cold with grief
No one felt like gathering around the Christmas tree
Verse 2
A miracle then happened a knock heard at the door
Brought back the vague reminder of what this day is for
They had gifts of love and healing but that was just the start
They brought Christmas to our house when they brought Jesus to our hearts
Chorus
Come inside warm yourself by the fire of God’s love
No matter what we have it’s always more than enough
For all the empty places life has left are being filled
All because the Savior lives in a house that hope built
Verse 3
Now every Christmas season I can’t help but give
The light I have to someone else wherever darkness lives
I have to keep on ringing out the news that Christ has come
‘Cause I can’t help but tell you all the things He’s done!
Chorus
Come inside warm yourself by the fire of God’s love
No matter what we have it’s always more than enough
For all the empty places life has left are being filled
All because the Savior lives
O come let us adore Him
O come let us adore Him
For all the empty places life has left are being filled
All because the Savior lives
In a house that hope built
In a house that hope built

Oh Heather! I just love to hear you sing. I’ve never heard Alan sing, but together you guys are awesome. Have you ever considered making a Christmas album?
Wishing you all the peace, joy and wonder of His perfect love that was borne out in the form of a baby lying in a manger. “For unto us a child is born, to us a son is given and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.” (Isaiah 9:6-7)
