Born to Die

One of our favorite musical groups, Shane & Shane, came out with a great Christmas CD this year. We were especially affected by the lyrics to the song, Born to Die. We hope you all have a Merry Christmas and are reminded again of our Savior as we celebrate his life and his death for us.

Born to Die
When the babe was born.
In a manger on the hay.
God saw a veil torn.
He saw Good Friday.
He was born to die.

Gold laid before the Christ.
Incense, His presence is sweet.
Myrrh to signify victory over death's sting.
He was born to die.

It came in a dream.
To Joseph late on night.
That Herod sought the King.
But could not take His life.
He was born to die.

He said, "You won't take my life.
You won't take my life.
You won't take my life...I lay it down."

We came here today to celebrate His birth.
But let us not forget why Jesus came to earth.
He was born to die.
