How Many Kings

The Song “How Many Kings” by Downhere

Sounds of Christmas

Here I go again.

Another song has touched my heart – so much so that I’ve added it to my iPod playlist.

Have you heard the song “How Many Kings” by Downhere?

Our church choir sang this song, among others, for our Christmas presentation last Sunday and I’ve been in love with it ever since.

In just a little over four minutes, the song’s lyrics capture the heart of what Christmas is all about.

*Lowly and small, the weakest of all
Unlikeliness hero, wrapped in His mother’s shawl
Just a child
Is this who we’ve waited for?

How Many Kings

“Just a child,” but not just any child.

Jesus Christ is the Savior of the World!

*How many gods have poured out their hearts
To romance a world that has torn all apart
How many fathers gave up their sons for me?
Only One did that for me.

Worshiping the Messiah Doesn’t Stop After Christmas

“How Many Kings” is one of those songs you can listen to any time of year.

In less than a month, Christmas will be over.

The colorful decorations around the house and the stockings on the hearth are carefully packed away for next year. For some folks, that may feel like a let down.

But hark!

Notice I said “hark.” This is the only time of year that fits. 😉

Hark!

Jesus Christ and the celebration of His life is for all seasons.

Summer, Fall, Winter, Spring – He’s the reason there’s a “you” and a “me.”

May the blessings of Christmas warm your heart as we prepare to celebrate Christ’s birth!
