Here are some lyrics from one of my favorite musicians, Sufjan Stevens. He will be on constantly from now through the Christmas Season. Only at Christmas time
Only a tree to climb
Only at Christmas time
If you can read the sign
Only at Christmas time
Everything lost will find
Only at Christmas time
We remember that, 'cursed is anyone who hangs on a tree'. There is no Calvary without Bethlehem. I love how he puts the line - "only a tree to climb." I want to remember while I am shopping that not only is Jesus the 'reason for the season', or that he was 'born that man no more may die', but that he climbed the cross for me. This is a beautiful song mixed with beautiful and thought provoking lyrics. Merry Christmas.
