聖誕節日 ("Christmas Day")

Dear Listening Friends,   Merry Christmas!！ We welcome you to our program, 愛的凱歌 (Adore Him). Today, we would like to share with you the song "Christmas Day" based on Chris Tomlin’s EP Christmas Day: Christmas Songs of Worship released in 2019.   Some lines from the song “Christmas Day” describe: “The darkness was deep, but never hopeless. Redemption came, and His name is Jesus!” The song's chorus declares that Jesus Christ is good and was born to conquer the grave. He is the light of the world and the reason for Christmas. In the Bible, God declares the truth about his son, Jesus Christ, “In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind” (John 1:4). He also reveals to us, “The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world” (John 1:9). Redemption not only came, but God also promised that in the end, Christ must come again. He is our eschatological hope.   We have recorded our own version of "Christmas Day" after translating its lyrics into Chinese. If you're interested, we invite you to sing along with us. The Chinese translation of the lyrics is provided below. Now, let’s listen to "Christmas Day" and hope you enjoy it! Merry Christmas and may the peace of Christ be with all of us!
