“Thirty feet beneath the earth in strict isolation, not knowing a thing about wha t was happening in the world above, I expressed my concern for spreadin g the gospel on all continents, my love toward the Communists , and my burning desire that they (alo ng with those they oppressed) might be saved.

Basically, I dreamt in that solitary cell about an internat ional mission to the Communist world.

It seemed the vain fantasy of a sick mind.”

“My heart exults in the Lord; my horn is exalted in the Lord.

My mouth derides my enemies, because I rejoice in your salvation.

There is none holy like the Lord: for there is none besides you; there is no rock like our God.” Hannah’s song, 1 Samuel 2:1&2 (ESV) “My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, for he has looked on the humble estate of his servant.

For behold, from now on all generations will call me blessed.”

Mary’s song, Luke 1:46-48 (ESV)

WARMEST CHRISTMAS GREETINGS!

DearFriends,

How much we missed times all together last Christmas singing carols… thank you for joining us tonight to sing with double measure!

We sing to sow and grow the seeds of hope and joy. We sing to pass on the greatest story that has been faithfully passed onto us. We sing to keep our hearts up especially as those coming after us are listening and joining in.

“A tiny seed unfolding in the womb Becomes the source from which we all unfold And flower into being.

We are healed, The end begins, the tomb becomes a womb, For now in him all things are re-aligned.”

(Malcolm Guite) As we sing and read through the Christmas story may our hearts know the freedom and purpose of that unfolding and re-aligning in Christ,

M E R RY C H R I S T M A S ,

Keith and Kristyn For those who would like to find out more about the meaning of Christmas and about the Christian Faith we have a couple of complimentary books available to you in the lobby – please just ask!

If you have any additional questions, prayer requests, or are looking to be involved in a church family near you, email info@gettymusic.com.

SPECIAL GUESTS Keith and Kristyn have had the privilege of partnering with many of the world’s leading artists, Christian speakers and musicians, through the Sing! Conference.

We are thrilled to introduce you to many of them through the Christmas tour.

Dana Masters Dana Masters is a singer and performer best known for her work alongside renowned artist Van Morrison. She was born and raised in the deep south of the United States by family who ushered in and were deeply involved with the Civil Rights Movement of the ‘50s and ‘60s. After many years in the music industry, she met and fell in love with a Northern Irishman and decided to take a leap and make Ireland her home. There, she became deeply involved in the Irish jazz scene. Now, Dana is determined to pour all of the experience, passion, and creativity collected in the last 6 years of crafting music with Van Morrison into a unique project inviting the listener to not only hear, but to see behind the curtain of songwriting, producing, and arranging into the rebirth of an artist as she steps onto her own stage to tell her story in her own words.

Sandra McCracken Sandra McCracken’s prolific contributions as a songwriter, modern-day hymn writer, and record producer have brought grace and clarity to her soulful, folk-gospel sound. Whether in a theater or in a chapel, she is a dynamic performer who blurs the lines of what church music sounds like, captivating and inviting audiences to sing along. While many of her songs like “We Will Feast In The House Of Zion” and “Thy Mercy My God” have settled into regular rotation in Christian worship services internationally, she has also had songs recorded by All Sons And Daughters, ABC’s Grey’s Anatomy, Audrey Assad, A Rocha Compilation, Bifrost Arts, Caedmon’s Call and others. She is further a founding member of Indelible Grace Music and Rain For Roots (children’s music) and has been a guest writer for Art House America, She Reads Truth, The Gospel Coalition, Christianity Today, RELEVANT Magazine and more.

John Patitucci John Patitucci has been at the forefront of the jazz world for the last 30+ years and active in all styles of music. He is a three-time Grammy award winner with 14 total nominations. He has performed and/or recorded with jazz giants such as Dizzy Gillespie, Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea, Stan Getz, Freddie Hubbard, Roy Haynes, Wynton Marsalis, Michael Brecker, Kenny Garrett, Victor Feldman, Nancy Wilson and countless others. John has also performed and or recorded with pop artists such as John Mayer, Alicia Keys, Joni Mitchell, Bono, Sting, James Taylor and Paul Simon.

Ricky Skaggs Ricky Skaggs, Country Music Hall of Fame inductee, is truly a pioneer of Bluegrass and Country music, earning 12 #1 hit singles, 14 GRAMMY® Awards, 11 IBMA Awards, nine ACM Awards, eight CMA Awards (including Entertainer of the Year), two Dove Awards, three honorary Doctorate degrees, a GMA Gospel Music Hall of Fame induction, the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum’s 2013 Artist-InResidence, an Americana Music Association Lifetime Achievement Award in the Instrumentalist category along with countless other awards. Since he began playing music more than 50 years ago, Skaggs has released more than 30 albums and has performed thousands of live shows.

Kirk Whalum Kirk Whalum is a Grammy Award-winning saxophonist and songwriter known for his collaborations with Barbara Streisand, Luther Vandross, Quincy Jones, and especially his solo on Whitney Houston’s “I Will Always Love You.” He has recorded over 25 solo albums, including “For You” and the series “The Gospel According to Jazz.”

An ordained minister, Kirk also hosts the podcast Bible in Your Ear. In addition to music and ministry, Kirk has a passion to educate young, aspiring musicians and is currently engaged as a music professor at Visible Music College in his hometown of Memphis, TN.

ABOUT KEITH AND KRISTYN GETTY Keith and Kristyn Getty are passionate about hymns.

Their hymns, including “In Christ Alone” and “Christ Our Hope in Life and Death,” are sung throughout the world, and they have written or published 77 titles listed by CCLI in its US and UK top 2000 lists. Their original publishers, Integrity Music, have estimated that more than 100 million people around the globe sing their hymns every year.

The couple also love sharing hymns in diverse settings, from singalongs in their home and at local churches to annual events at Carnegie Hall, the Kennedy Center, and the Grand Ole Opry House. They have featured in television specials on PBS, CBS, TBN, BBC, and have sung for presidents, prime ministers, and the UK National Prayer Breakfast at Houses of Parliament. They look forward to resuming a season of SING! arena events across the world which began in their hometowns of Belfast and Nashville.

Keith and Kristyn are award-winning recording artists, with their latest album “Confessio” tracing their journey back to Ireland last year and the roots of their hymn writing. They are also advocates for the fun and joy of singing in the family, with the album “Hymns from Home” (drawing from their daughters’ favorite songs during the season of lockdown) as the newest installment in their popular Getty Kids Hymnal series. Kristyn recently recorded a new audio version of the ESV Bible, to be released soon from our friends at Crossway.

Keith and Kristyn continue to serve as founding leaders of the Getty Music organization, with their newest project the Sing Hymnal to be released in 2024. They recently established the Getty Music Foundation, an initiative that seeks to foster Christ-centered singing in underresourced parts of the world.

Keith was recently awarded Officer of the Order of the British Empire by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II—the first contemporary Christian musician ever to receive this honor. Together with their four daughters, Keith and Kristyn live between Northern Ireland and Nashville.

ABOUT Getty Music exists to create and curate hymns for the 21st century church. Our passion has always been to join rich theology, timeless artistry, and vibrant singing for the whole family of God in churches around the globe, a work that is expressed through multiple endeavors.

Getty Music Publishing, built initially on the Getty catalog, is now home for a collection of hymns and a team of songwriters who share the vision for richer congregational singing, including Keith and Kristyn Getty, Matt Papa, Matt Boswell, Matt Merker, Jordan Kauflin, Ben Shive, and Tommy Bailey.

Getty Music is committed to education, primarily through the annual SING! Conference in Nashville. Other initiatives include the Hymn Writing Collective (a series of classes and workshops to equip hymn writers led by the Getty writing team) and SingGlobal.com, an online portal for enjoying the SING! conference 365 days a year, all helping churches around the world better prepare for worship each Sunday.

Getty Music Touring produces two major tours each year. The “Christ Our Hope in Life and Death” tour will visit churches and arenas from fall 2021 through fall 2022. The annual Christmas tour plays iconic concert venues, including performances in The Kennedy Center and Carnegie Hall.

Getty Music Label creates audio and video recordings by Keith and Kristyn Getty, Matt Boswell and Matt Papa, the Sing! Live series, and the Getty Kids Hymnal, as well as a number of new hymn-related products, along with songbooks and sheet music to help churches sing. The label works in partnership with Capitol Christian Music Group and with broadcasters and print publishers around the world from PBS and BBC to TBN. Getty Music is also very excited to announce the forthcoming Sing Hymnal, an expansive new hymnal to be realized in a diverse set of materials, from pew editions and other physical editions to digital resources. Prepared in partnership with our friends at Crossway, look for the Sing Hymnal in 2023 and 2024.

Keith and Kristyn Getty also recently established a separate not-for-profit organization, the Getty Music Foundation, as an initiative that seeks to foster Christ-centered singing in underresourced parts of the world. In 2021 the Foundation supported the translation of SING! Conference sessions into 12 different languages around the globe.

ABOUT SING! is an initiative of Keith and Kristyn Getty to help individuals, families, and churches deepen their faith through singing.

The core values of the SING! movement are:

Rich theology Timeless artistry Vibrant singing in the lives of individuals, families, churches, and communities Keith’s and Kristyn’s Sing! book was released in September 2017 at the inaugural SING! Conference. That first gathering, which commemorated the 500th anniversary of the Reformation, led to subsequent conferences on singing the Psalms (2018) and singing the life of Christ (2019). The movement grew to include events around the world with one-day city conferences and arena shows. Last year saw the introduction of Sing! Global, as believers from around the world participated in an innovative online event focused on Singing the Scriptures (2020), along with the development of SingGlobal.com, a new digital learning portal to encourage leaders and equip churches 365 days a year.

The theme of the most recent conference was Sing! In Christ Alone (2021). A hybrid event consisting of thousands in Nashville along with believers from over 60 countries at SingGlobal.com, the music took inspiration from the great Christ-centered hymns of church history.

Sing! 2022 is entitled Christ Our Hope in Life and Death: Prayers and Confessions. It will have a particular emphasis on the importance of prayer and liturgy in our worship. We invite you to join us September 4-7, 2022, in Nashville or online.

We are launching several weekend events in churches around the United States in 2022, each also entitled Christ Our Hope in Life and Death.

WORD FOR WORD MINISTRIES

THE HISTORY OF SING! AN IRISH CHRISTMAS Our first collaboration as a married couple in 2004 was a collection of Christmas songs based around John 1, and every year we’ve tried to write new carols and songs for the church to sing. Irish Christmas has become a wonderful opportunity to share this music as it has evolved and changed over the years.

2010 DECEMBER

2011 DECEMBER

2012 DECEMBER

As with many creative ventures, it begins with a phone call. For Joy—An Irish Christmas (the initial title of this Christmas tour), the call was an invitation from Tom Bledsoe to be part of a special Christmas celebration in 2010 with George Beverly Shea and Cliff Barrows (with Billy Graham speaking on the first evening). The 30 minutes of music we prepared for that first night was expanded to a fuller evening of music subsequently presented to a number of churches that year.

After a trip to Ireland to record the Joy—An Irish Christmas studio album (called after our first daughter, Eliza Joy), the first official tour kicked off with 18 performances and finished with a sell-out performance at Nashville’s Schermerhorn Symphony Center.

The second year of the tour played to more than 30,000 people over 18 performances combining church concerts and numerous concert halls, again finishing at the Schermerhorn Symphony Center in Nashville. In addition, there were two special Grand Ole Opry performances at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville.

2014 NOVEMBER/ DECEMBER

2015 NOVEMBER/ DECEMBER

After taking a year hiatus due to the birth of Charlotte Juliana, the third year of the tour was attended by an estimated 50,000 people at 18 performances. With a combination of box office sell-outs and standing-room-only general admission concerts, the tour premiered in Ontario and was recorded by the BBC. The tour featured a return to the Grand Ole Opry, our sold-out premiere at Carnegie Hall with special guest Ricky Skaggs, and again finishing with a sold out evening at the Schermerhorn Symphony Center.

In 2015, Joy—An Irish Christmas was presented in more than 20 cities, to an estimated 60,000 people across North America and in several prestigious concert halls with sold out performances including Carnegie Hall (New York), The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts (Washington, D.C.), Roy Thomson Hall (Toronto), and The Fox Theatre (Atlanta). A live performance was also released on CD and DVD and broadcast across America on Public Television stations during the Christmas season.

2017 DECEMBER

2018 NOVEMBER/ DECEMBER

Following the launch of the Sing! conference initiative, the focus deepened toward congregational singing and the celebration of carols in particular. This tour featured some of the greatest memories in the history of Irish Christmas from Joni Eareckson Tada doing the readings at Carnegie Hall and sharing what Christmas means to her 50 years on from her accident, as well as Vice President and Second Lady Pence attending the Kennedy Center show and hosting the band to a private performance in their home. Kristyn was pregnant with our fourth child, Tahlia, and new special guests included David Kim (concertmaster of The Philadelphia Orchestra) performing Winter from the Four Seasons, and our friend David Platt sharing a Christmas message at two of the events.

2018 saw more sellout performances including Carnegie Hall (with Phil Keaggy’s anniversary performance of “Silent Night” and Dr Timothy Keller preaching the Christmas story) and the Kennedy Center (which featured a lineup of brilliant young artists performing for the Vice President and Second Lady). We also took the show to the West Coast for the first time with a wonderful evening where Joni Eareckson Tada shared her memories of Christmas alongside guest performances from Matt Redman, Ricky Skaggs and Pedro Eustache. The guest line-up across the run of shows continued to diversify with appearances by some of the Getty Music songwriters. And we closed with a grand finale in Nashville where Alison Krauss duetted with Kristyn on “In Christ Alone” and “Joy To The World.”

2016 DECEMBER With both a deepening desire to clearly tell the Christmas story and a growing emphasis on carol singing, we developed the second half “lessons and carols” format akin to the traditional service from King’s College, Cambridge. We had four pieces of art commissioned, to represent the four songs of Christmas as told in Luke.

We developed the Concert Hall Series with Alistair Begg at each event and new special guests including Heather Headley, David Kim, Blair Linne, Andrew Nemr, and Laura Story, as well as welcome returns from John Patitucci and Ricky Skaggs.

2019 DECEMBER The 2019 tour was full of many special memories including a live television performance of Sing! An Irish Christmas from the Grand Ole Opry house airing on TBN, the release of the Sing! An Irish Christmas album, as well as a new record in the Getty Kids Hymnal series entitled “Family Carol Sing” to encourage families and children to sing these carols together. Many special guest artists returned to perform, in addition to hymn writers Matt Boswell and Matt Papa who had recently joined the Getty Music songwriting team. A particular highlight was granting the Sing! Lifetime Achievement Award to Joni Eareckson Tada for her many decades of ministry to the least of these and for her tireless enthusiasm for the great hymns of the faith, with the award being presented by Vice President and Second Lady Pence at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC.

2020 With the world in lockdown due to the pandemic, the tour took a hiatus. But nothing could silence the people of God singing of our hope in Christ. We spent Christmas at home in Ireland for the first time in many years, singing carols with our girls (and with many of you who joined us online for the Family Hymn Sing broadcasts!). Through the new Sing! Global virtual conference and learning platform, as well as the Getty Music Hymn Writing Collective which focused on writing Christmas carols for the modern church, our sense of connection with believers all over the world grew and deepened.

SING! AN IRISH CHRISTMAS 2021 After so many months of waiting, we are beyond excited to gather with friends old and new for a tour with several fresh voices in the band and new hymns to share. In honor of the 10th anniversary of Sing! An Irish Christmas, we are inviting many of the special guests who have been favorites over the past decade. We feel this year’s celebration can be summarized with the line, “A thrill of hope! The weary world rejoices.” We have been reminded of the frailty of life and the challenges of this world, which makes it all the more amazing that “A child is born; a son is given.”

Christmas Around the World James Ainscough We all know that Santa Claus takes many forms across cultures – Kris Kringle, Father Christmas, Daidí na Nollag, Père Noël, Ded Moroz, Thatha, the list goes on and on. And there are endless Christmas traditions around the world, many that would feel completely alien to most of us; a giant lantern festival in the Philippines, roller-skating in Caracas, throwing a spoonful of kutya at the ceiling in the Ukraine, and not forgetting the Gävle Yule Goat of Sweden.

The Christian message of Christmas is the same the world over – uniting believers in the farthest-flung corners of the globe. And celebrating this in song is a universal tradition begun by the angels themselves as they heralded the birth of Christ. However, the global diversity of melody and meter, poetry and imagery, instruments and harmonies, reflect God’s rich and boundless creativity. And this means many of our most beloved carols do not translate well to other cultures.

It’s hard to sing “Snow had fallen, Snow on snow on snow, In the bleak midwinter” in an area where such weather is alien (in Bethlehem, for example, where in December temperature generally ranges from the 40s to the 60s!).

So if exporting our favorite Christmas carols (old and new) is not always relevant, how do we in the West best support and encourage the great multitude of our brothers and sisters in Christ to sing their faith at Christmas (and in fact all year round)? The Getty Music Foundation has been established to do just that, with a mission to educate churches, families, and individuals across the globe in a biblical view of theology, artistry, and mission in congregational singing.

In 2021 the Foundation, working with local partners, translated core teaching sessions from this year’s Sing! Global Conference into 12 languages: Arabic, French, Hindi, Italian, Korean, Mandarin, Mongolian, Nepali, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish and Tagalog. This makes conference resources accessible to the languages of four billion people which, when combined with the English-speaking world, means well over two-thirds of the global population can access teaching from Sing! Global. Through the local events that publicize and provide these resources, our hope is that many who lead in their local churches will be taught and inspired to take universal, biblical principles and apply them afresh in the cultural context of their own communities.

Lord willing, we will continue to expand the range of languages in 2022, as well as bring over 100 musicians and church leaders from around the world to be part of the conference, so they can engage more deeply with the conference experience and build international connections with other in-person attendees.

And let’s not forget how much we can learn from Bible-believing Christians who come from vastly different societies and traditions. Their different perspectives, experiences and emphases can help us hear and understand the Christmas message afresh. Bringing a wealth of diversity to the Sing! Conference in 2022 will enrich us all, in the same way we benefit from eclectic array of musicians onstage (who this year represented every continent other than Antarctica!).

The Foundation is registered with the IRS as a non-profit with 501c3 status. Operating with a separate Board and separate staff team, it has a single-minded focus on its charitable mission. So far it has been funded with a tithe of royalties and income from the Getty Music Group, which will also donate $5 to the Foundation from every registration for Sing! Global 2022.

If you would also like to support our vital mission to equip, educate, and encourage the global church, please find out more at www.GettyMusicFoundation.org

And let’s pray together this Christmas:

The Carols of Christmas and the Shape of the Christian Life Matt Merker Songs shape us. Over the course of our lives, the words we sing with our lips resonate deep in our hearts, guiding our values, desires, and hopes. If the average churchgoer sings five hymns each Sunday for 80 years, that amounts to 20,800 opportunities for songs to exert their remarkable power in us and through us. What we sing matters.

As with singing, so it goes with the whole worship service: the prayers, confessions, Scripture readings, sermons, and offerings of the church, along with baptism and the Lord’s Supper, disciple us week after week. God speaks to us by his Spirit, fashioning us as his people. Every element of the service should reinforce the proclamation of the good news of Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection for sinners. In this way, the patterns and rhythms of gathered worship conform us to the image of Christ. (In fact, this reality is so vital that we have planned to make it our focus at the 2022 Sing!

Conference: Christ Our Hope in Life and Death: Prayers and Confessions.)

Christmastime provides a wonderful opportunity to reflect on the power of what we sing. Countless songs may have something to do with Christmas, but only a small fraction of these have proven to be worth singing again and again.

Why? One reason is that the best Christmas carols combine rich biblical theology and beautiful poetry (along with timeless, stirring melodies) to shape us into a certain kind of people. Such songs change us. They leave their mark on us. We are different—more hopeful, more rooted in God’s promises, more thankful for the gift of the Messiah—than we were before we sang them.

Consider five qualities that the classic Christmas carols stir in us.

Expectation “Come, thou long-expected Jesus,” the hymnist writes. “From our fears and sins release us; let us find our rest in Thee.”

Christians hold no illusions about this world being our forever home. It is broken and marred by the darkness of sin, war, injustice, oppression, and calamity. Yet the great carols make us a people of hopeful expectation. As God’s people of old yearned for the birth of the promised King, these songs spur us likewise to long for his return, when he will make all things right.

Thus, we sing “O Come, O come, Emmanuel, and ransom captive Israel!” That ancient hymn trains us in the art of waiting, which is the basic posture of the Christian life. Like the Psalms of lament, we cry out for God to “make envy, strife, and quarrels cease; fill the whole world with heaven’s peace.” Even as we are honest about our desperate longing for Christ to return, we know that “the hopes and fears of all the years” were met in the little town of Bethlehem at his first advent. That gives us great confidence as we await his second advent: “Rejoice, rejoice! Emmanuel shall come to thee, O Israel.”

Adoration It is easy to take for granted the well-known refrain, “O come let us adore him,” and miss how radical these words are.

The great carols of old do not mainly make us into a people who find Jesus interesting, or appreciate his teaching, or affirm his importance. They go much farther. They stir us to “come adore on bended knee / Christ the Lord, the newborn king.” Songs like these beckon us to see Jesus as delightful, beautiful in every way, far exceeding every perfection. What else could we do in response to such a Savior than to “haste, haste to bring him laud” and let our “loving hearts enthrone him”?

Most people acknowledge Jesus of Nazareth as an important historical figure. But a true Christian is someone who heeds the call to “come and worship Christ the newborn King.” We have been taught by the classic carols to adore him with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength.

Thankfulness The best carols make us a grateful people, because they so memorably express what the birth of Christ means for us.

His incarnation changes everything, with “the dawn of redeeming grace” that fills our hearts with a thankfulness that can never fade.

Perhaps this is why “Hark! The Herald Angels Sing” is a favorite carol for so many: its profound poetry fosters irresistible gratitude in our souls. It reminds us that Christ brings “peace on earth and mercy mild,” making “God and sinners reconciled.” Jesus was “born that we no more may die, born to raise the sons of earth, born to give them second birth.”

Christians are a thankful people because the great carols have taught us the priceless worth of the free gift of salvation.

Witness Our gratitude then overflows in witness to the world: “Go, tell it on the mountain, over the hills and everywhere!” The news of Christ’s birth is not to be sung quietly in a corner. These songs are meant as public announcements, “tidings of comfort and joy” for all people.

Singing the songs of Christ’s birth, year after year, makes us a people who do not hesitate to share the reason for the hope we have in us (1 Peter 3:15). Like the angels who filled the sky with loud refrains on the night Jesus was born, we seek to proclaim the news of “peace on earth, good will to men.” We boldly sing the only message that saves to all corners of the world.

Joy Above all, the great songs on the incarnation of Christ disciple us into a life of unbreakable joy. We have tasted “the thrill of hope” that transforms weariness to gladness. We have heard the angels “sweetly singing o’er the plains,” and we join the mountains in echoing back the joyous strains. Indeed, the carols teach us that though sins and sorrows may grow, and thorns infest the ground, there is a day coming when all will be well, and the whole world will “repeat the sounding joy.”

This Christmas, join us in thanking God for the gift of songs that transform us, songs that make us who we are. Share these carols with your families, churches, and communities, so that they too would sing “the glories of his righteousness and wonders of his love.”

Pass the Promise - A Christmas Reflection Kristyn Getty

And Hannah prayed and said, “My heart exults in the Lord; my horn is exalted in the Lord.

My mouth derides my enemies, because I rejoice in your salvation.

There is none holy like the Lord: for there is none besides you; there is no rock like our God….

The Lord will judge the ends of the earth; he will give strength to his king and exalt the horn of his anointed.”

(1 Samuel 2:1-2, 10, ESV)

When Mary learns that the Lord has chosen her to give birth to the long-awaited Messiah, she bursts into song.

Her song echoes that which Hannah sung to thank the Lord for giving her a son many centuries earlier.

Why does Mary’s song resemble Hannah’s song so closely? It is because Mary received promises and prophecies that were passed from generation to generation. She, and many others like her, were looking for the king who had been foretold, whose dawning had been shared in poetry and hymn and Psalms through the centuries. The themes of Hannah’s song were deeply rooted in her heart, and so she reflected these same truths in her own song of praise to the Lord.

Now we have the same opportunity to pass these promises—fulfilled at Christmas, fulfilled in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus, the son of Mary and son of God—on to our own children, churches, and communities. As Mary herself sang, “His mercy is for those who fear him from generation to generation” (Luke 1:50, ESV).

This summer my friend Sandra McCracken and I wrote “Pass the Promise,” a hymn inspired by Hannah’s song which invites us to bear witness of the things of the Lord to the generations to come. Each verse of the song follows the pattern of Hannah’s prayer in 1 Samuel 2. Hannah, and Mary after her, looked beyond their own moment. Their gaze and identity were steadied not on the changing faces of human wisdom but the perfect wisdom and works of God. Their song is ours.

Recently Keith and I had the opportunity to teach this new song to our home church. While we were leading I noticed a dad in the congregation rocking his baby in his arms along to the music and leaning in as he sang “to our sons and daughters.” It was such a moving thing to see. The lyrics were doing what we had hoped: bringing daily life and our hopes and burdens for the next generation into our congregational singing to the Lord.

The Psalmist sings, “I will open my mouth in a parable; I will utter dark sayings from of old, things that we have heard and known, that our fathers have told us. We will not hide them from their children, but tell to the coming generation the glorious deeds of the Lord, and his might, and the wonders that he has done.” (Psalm 78:2-4, ESV) It is interesting that the text says “dark sayings from of old”. The dark realities of human sin, struggle, loss, and longing are clearly told to us in God’s Word. And so the need we have for Christ’s salvation and the wonders of it shine all the more brightly. Christ is born into the shadows of this fallen world at Christmas to bring the light of salvation and hope that will never fade. To this whole story we bear witness… we tell and sing and write and share and live it day by day.

We cannot keep it to ourselves.

O Emmanuel

By Malcolm Guite O come, O come, and be our God-with-us O long-sought With-ness for a world without, O secret seed, O hidden spring of light.

Come to us Wisdom, come unspoken Name Come Root, and Key, and King, and holy Flame, O quickened little wick so tightly curled, Be folded with us into time and place, Unfold for us the mystery of grace And make a womb of all this wounded world.

O heart of heaven beating in the earth, O tiny hope within our hopelessness Come to be born, to bear us to our birth, To touch a dying world with new-made hands And make these rags of time our swaddling bands.
