I share this song every year and this year more than ever, it means so much.
in the midst of the pain and darkness, love was all around
Preparations were made
For his celebration day
He said “eat this bread and think of it as me
Drink this wine and dream it will be
The blood of our children all around
The blood of our children all around”
The blood of our children all around
Father up above, why in all this anger have you filled
Me up with love
Fill me love love love
Love love love
Love love
And the blood of our children all around
So the story goes, so I’m told
The people he knew were
Less than golden hearted
Gamblers and robbers
Drinkers and jokers, all soul searchers
Like you and me
Rumors insisited he soon would be
For his deviations
Taken into custody by the authorities
Less informed than he.
Drinkers and jokers. all soul searchers
Searching for love love love
Love love love
Love love is all around

One of my all time favorite Christmas songs (although it’s not particularly Christmas-y I think of it as one). Thank you for sharing the love xoxo

LOVE the song with all my heart. Dave is my absolute favorite recording artist of all time and every Christmas I look forward to hearing him sing this song.
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year, Heather! I look forward to joining you more often for Just Write in 2013. :)
