what christmas IS, what it's for, what it meant then and what it means now has, for me, been a new discovery with each new year.
deliverance, healing, and life. they are promised us through HIS arrival.
===
our enemy, our captor, is no pharaoh on the nile
our toil is neither mud, nor brick, nor sand
our ankles bear no calluses or chains, yet Lord, we're bound
imprisoned here, we dwell in our own land
deliver us, deliver us
oh Yahweh, hear our cry
and gather us beneath Your wings tonight
our sins, they are more numerous than all the lambs we've slain
these shackles, they were made with our own hands
our toil is our atonement and our freedom Yours to give
so Yahweh, break this silence if You can
deliver us, deliver us
oh Yahweh, hear our cry
and gather us beneath Your wings tonight
"jerusalem, jerusalem
how often i have longed
to gather you beneath my gentle wings"
