A Baby Changed Everything on Christmas Day

"Teenage girl, much too young
Unprepared for what’s to come
A baby changes everything”
A baby that was born in a dirty, cold and gross Stable that was to save the world, because the Inn had no room for a mother and her child.”
A girl that was so scared to accept a small gift; that would turn into the biggest Christmas gift to the world. Not knowing what was going on, said Yes and the whole plan started!
“Not a ring on her hand
All her dreams and all her plans
A baby changes everything
A baby changes everything”
Her future husband and parents very upset with the news when they found out, where to turn – where to go? – She never lost her faith or why the dream of the greatest gift would be born.
“The man she loves she’s never touched
How will she keep his trust?
A baby changes everything
A baby changes everything”
Never married how do you explain it? How do you continue to deal with the looks the talks? How – How can you trust again? – Those are the questions, it’s not a trust; it’s a test, can you trust what has happened?!.
“And she cries!
Ooh, she cries
Ooh, oh”
She is scared, scared of what is coming, what and how to raise him – the greatest gift to the World! She is scared.
“She has to leave, go far away
Heaven knows she can’t stay
A baby changes everything”
Must think, she has to leave and visit family and to understand what has taken place and why her! There is trouble coming, they must leave, they pack – they say goodbye and leave. They are scared.
“And she cries!
And she cries!
Oh, she cries.”
“Shepherds all gather ‘round
Up above the star shines down
A baby changes everything”
They travel from far away to see this gift. They follow a star so bright only one in the sky – the only one for millions of miles away the One that glows. They are poor – the gift born in a Stable for all the nations to have and love and not just the rich, but the poor of the poorest!
“Choir of angels sing
Glory to the newborn King
A baby changes everything
A baby changes everything
Everything, everything, everything”
The star so bright in the star filled sky on a cold night – a baby cries for the first time and the World all bows in HONOR as the sky is filled with Angels singing praises of thanks to the baby.
“Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Hallelujah, Hallelujah”
The world is in tears of joy and happiness for the greatest gift was born; we are all kneeling and smiling.
“My whole life has turned around
I was lost but now I’m found
A baby changes everything, yeah
A baby changes everything”
The Lord of Lords was born in a cold, stable – a Stable made for animals and not the King of the World. My life was changed when I was born under His love and was blessed with many friends and family. I, the sheep was lost and my Shepherd found me – leaded me back to the flock. He continues to find His lost sheep and brings them home to the flock.
We should be all kneeling in His honor and give Him a place in our homes; it was for Him that we have a place at His table.
What a true gift in a season made of Love, Faith, Hope. “for unto mankind … the King of Kings was born … you will call Him … Emmanuel.”
