I sang this song at church today and it was really moving. God put this song on my heart several weeks ago and it seems he wanted the whole congregation to hear it. Now I'm being moved to put the words here, too. Even if you don't know the tune, you can reflect on the words and maybe shift your holiday focus back to the original reason for the season.
There are people who are whispering,
and the rumors are running wild.
There's a woman who's not married
but she's gonna have a child.
Her name is Mary; she's a virgin
from down in Nazareth. Now listen close:
She's gonna marry a man named Joseph,
but the baby's father is the Holy Ghost.
And who do you think
could believe such a thing?
Could believe that this story is true?
Who do you think could believe such a thing?
Well, here's hoping to heaven you do.
Now they're sayin' she had the baby
in a barn in Bethlehem.
And the star flew 'round in heaven
'til it stopped right over them.
Then some shepherds said an angel
came and told them 'bout the birth.
They always knew men went to heaven,
but now God had come to earth.
And who do you think
could believe such a thing?
Could believe that this story is true?
Who do you think could believe such a thing?
Well, here's hoping to heaven you do.
