00:14 Wishing you a very Merry Christmas season. 00:16 You probably know how much I love music, 00:19 especially this time of the year. 00:21 So I want to introduce to you my very special friends 00:24 from West Tennessee, Endless Highway. 00:27 They are family group, 00:28 comprised of Jason and Vanessa Griggs 00:30 and their two children Jay and Allison. 00:32 And I'm so glad they could join us 00:34 to share their blend of southern 00:36 and bluegrass gospel music 00:38 with family harmony and soul stirring songs 00:40 that will lift your spirit, 00:42 make you smile, 00:43 and make you want to shout hallelujah. 00:45 So sit back for a while, 00:47 worship our Savior Jesus Christ, 00:48 and be encouraged by the wonderful music 00:51 of Endless Highway. 01:06 Happy holiday, happy

01:55 Here to stay is the new bird 01:59 He sings a love song 02:00 As we go along 02:02 Walking in a winter wonderland 02:05 In the meadow we can build a snowman 02:08 And pretend that he's a circus

And since we've got no place to go 02:50 Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow 02:54 It doesn't show signs of stopping 02:57 And I've brought some corn for popping 02:59 The lights are turned way down low 03:03 Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow 03:06 When we finally kiss goodnight 03:09 How I'll hate going out in the storm 03:12 But if you really hold me tight 03:16 All the way home I'll be

dismay 04:07 Remember Christ our Savior 04:10 Was born on Christmas Day 04:12 To save us all from Satan's power 04:14 When we had gone astray 04:16 O tidings of comfort and joy 04:20 Comfort and joy 04:22 O tidings of comfort and joy 04:28 From God that is our Father 04:30 The blessed Angels came 04:33 Unto some certain Shepherds 04:35 With tidings of the same 04:37 That there was born in Bethlehem 04:40 The Son of God by name 04:42 Oh, tidings of comfort and joy 04:46 Comfort and joy 04:47 Oh, tidings of comfort and joy 04:54 In Bethlehem of Judah 04:56 This blessed babe was born 04:59 And laid within a manger 05:01 Upon this blessed morn 05:04 To which his mother Mary 05:06 Did nothing take in scorn 05:08 O tidings of comfort and joy 05:12 Comfort and joy 05:14 O tidings of comfort 05:18 And joy 05:26 Yeah, good job. 05:28 I'll tell you, we love singing acappella music. 05:31 We love singing those great old acappella hymns 05:34 of the Christmas season. 05:36 And I want you to listen to this song now. 05:37 This is a very special song, it's an old hymn, 05:40 and I ask one simple question 05:43 and the question is this, who is He? 05:45 But the question you should ask yourself today 05:48 is who is He to me, 05:50 because that's what really matters, 05:52 who is He? 05:56 Who is He in yonder stall 06:01 At whose feet the shepherds fall? 06:06 Who is He in deep distress 06:11 Fasting in the wilderness? 06:17 'Tis the Lord! 06:20 O wondrous story! 06:23 'Tis the Lord! 06:25 The King of glory! 06:28 At His feet we humbly fall 06:33 Crown Him! 06:35 Crown Him Lord of all! 06:41 Who is he the people bless 06:47 For His words of gentleness? 06:52 Who is he to whom they bring 06:57 All the sick and sorrowsings 07:02 'Tis the Lord! 07:04 O wondrous story! 07:07 'Tis the Lord! 07:10 The King of glory! 07:13 At His feet we humbly fall 07:18 Crown Him! 07:19 Crown Him Lord of all! 07:39 Lo! at midnight, 07:42 Who is He 07:45 Prays in dark Gethsemane? 07:52 Who is he on yonder tree 07:59 Dies in grief and agony? 08:10 Friends, this story really is true 08:13 that the God of heaven invaded time and space 08:16 to be born of a virgin birth, 08:18 to live a perfect sinless life on our behalf. 08:21 He was arrested, tried, 08:24 crucified on a cross on a hill called Golgotha. 08:26 And didn't they bury Him in a borrowed tomb? 08:29 But three days later, 08:30 He came out of that grave alive forevermore, 08:33 conquering death, hell, and the grave. 08:36 Who is he that from the grave 08:41 Comes to heal and help and save? 08:46 Who is he that from his throne 08:51 Rules thro' all the world alone? 08:57 'Tis the Lord! 09:01 O wondrous story! 09:04 'Tis the Lord! 09:06 The King of glory! 09:09 At His feet we humbly fall 09:15 Crown Him! 09:20 Crown Him! 09:25 Crown Him Lord 09:29 Of all! 09:34 Lord of all! 09:56 Christmas time's a comin' 09:58 Christmas time's a comin' 10:00 Christmas time's a comin' 10:02 And I know I'm going home 10:06 Snowflakes are falling 10:08 My old home's a calling 10:10 Tall pines are humming 10:12 Christmas time's a coming 10:15 Can't you hear them bells ringing 10:16 Ringing joy, joy hear them singing 10:19 When it's snowing 10:20 I'll be going back to my country home 10:34 Christmas time's a comin' 10:36 Christmas time's a comin' 10:38 Christmas time's a comin' 10:40 And I know I'm going home

them singing 11:34 When it's snowing 11:35 I'll be going back to my country home 11:40 Christmas time's a comin' 11:42 Christmas time's a comin' 11:44 Christmas time's a comin' 11:45 And I know I'm going home 11:49 Christmas time's a comin' 11:51 Christmas time's a comin' 11:53 Christmas time's a comin' 11:55 And I know I'm going home 12:10 Yeah! 12:12 Yeah, that's a lot of fun. 12:14 Good job, guys. 12:15 I love that song, 12:17 it reminds what country Christmas 12:18 is all about. 12:20 And I want us to reach back 12:21 and find an old song now and do. 12:23 Reminds me of my childhood. 12:25 When we're kids, you know, a lot of times, Christmas, 12:28 we think is all about gifts and presents 12:30 and hoping we get the gift we wanted. 12:33 But the older we get 12:35 the less Christmas is about gifts 12:37 and we realize Christmas truly is all about the Lord Jesus, 12:41 so you listen as this song spells out the word Christmas, 12:44 and for each letter of the songs 12:46 it tells us what Christmas really means. 12:56 When I was but a youngster 13:01 Christmas meant one thing 13:05 That I'd be getting lots of toys 13:10 That day 13:13 But I learned a whole lot different 13:17 When mother set me down 13:22 And taught me to spell Christmas 13:26 This way 13:31 C is for the Christ Child 13:35 Born upon this day 13:39 H is for Herald Angels 13:42 In the night 13:47 R means our redeemer 13:52 I means Israel 13:56 And S is for the star 13:59 That shone so bright 14:04 T is for three wise men 14:09 They who travelled far 14:13 M is for the manger 14:16 Where he lay 14:21 A is for all he stands for 14:25 S means shepherds came 14:29 And that's why 14:31 There's a Christmas Day 14:37 And that's why there's a Christmas Day 14:53 Yeah. 14:56 That's fun. 14:57 That tells us truly what Christmas is all about. 15:01 It's not about the gifts, 15:02 it's about the Lord Jesus Christ 15:04 and knowing Him in a personal way. 15:07 I'm going to get Allison 15:08 to come sing a song for you now. 15:11 It's called there's a new kid in town. 15:13 And I can just imagine 15:15 as the birth of Jesus was being rumored, 15:18 and people began to hear about this, 15:20 the noise that that was going on in that city. 15:24 And I can just imagine so you listen as Allison sings, 15:28 there's a new kid in town. 15:53 They're looking for the King 15:57 The new Messiah 16:02 They're following the star 16:06 Shining brighter 16:13 Old man won't you help us if you can 16:18 He shook his head 16:20 Then he pointed his hand 16:22 There's a new kid in town 16:26 And he's lying in a manger down the road 16:32 There's a new kid in town 16:37 But he's just another baby I suppose 16:43 Heaven knows 16:46 There's a new kid in town 16:49 Here in Bethlehem 16:56 I see you've traveled far 17:00 Bearing treasures 17:05 You say these gifts are for 17:09 The new King's pleasure 17:16 I've heard 17:18 That a King might come 17:21 But up 'til now there hasn't been one 17:26 But there's a new kid in town 17:30 And he's lying in a manger down the road 17:36 There's a new kid in town 17:40 But he's just another baby I suppose 17:46 Heaven knows 17:49 There's a new kid in town 17:53 Here in Bethlehem 18:00 There's a new kid in town 18:04 Here in Bethlehem. 18:20 For far too many, Christmas has been over commercialized 18:23 and it's become about the presents and the gifts. 18:28 But, friends, the greatest gift that has ever been given 18:31 was given about 2,000 years ago, 18:33 Emmanuel, God with us. 18:36 This year we need His presence for Christmas. 18:44 In the busy Christmas noise 18:49 All the lights, the bells, the toys 18:56 I have found 19:00 You are the only source 19:05 Of comfort 19:08 And joy 19:14 Lord I want your presence 19:21 For Christmas. 19:24 I want your presence 19:28 For Christmas 19:31 I long to feel 19:35 Your Spirit speaking peace 19:40 To my heart 19:47 Of all the gifts 19:50 I may receive 19:54 There's only one 19:58 I really need 20:02 And it's your presence 20:06 Your Presence 20:10 For Christmas 20:33 When the Holiday is through 20:38 And the year is fresh and new 20:45 What will linger 20:50 Are the moments spent 20:53 My Lord just worshipping you 21:02 Lord I want your presence 21:09 For Christmas 21:12 I want your presence 21:17 For Christmas 21:20 I long to feel 21:24 Your spirit speaking peace 21:29 to my heart 21:35 Of all the gifts 21:39 I may receive 21:42 There's only one 21:46 I really need 21:50 And it's your presence 21:55 Your presence 21:59 For Christmas 22:07 Breathe on me 22:13 Breathe on me 22:19 I want your presence 22:25 Your presence 22:30 For Christmas 22:55 Once there were three wise men 22:58 Who were following a star 23:01 Traveling to Bethlehem from eastern land so far 23:06 Where they heard about a birth there 23:09 An anointed Holy One 23:12 Born to be Messiah 23:14 God's only begotten Son 23:19 That little baby 23:21 He was born of a virgin 23:24 He was sent down to save us 23:27 And to bear every burden 23:29 He was God in the flesh 23:32 So let the hallelujahs ring 23:36 That little baby is the king 23:48 Well angels were descending 23:52 On that bright and starry night 23:55 Shepherds came to see that child 23:57 Beneath that star so bright 24:00 Would that baby in the manger 24:03 In that little Jewish town 24:06 One day will rule this universe 24:08 Creation will bow down 24:13 That little baby 24:15 He was born of a virgin 24:18 He was sent down to save us 24:20 And to bear every burden 24:23 He was God in the flesh 24:26 So let the hallelujahs ring 24:30 That little baby is the king 24:40 Well, that little baby 24:45 He was born of a virgin 24:48 He was sent down to save us 24:51 And to bear every burden 24:54 He was God in the flesh 24:56 So let the hallelujahs ring 25:00 That little baby is the king 25:05 He was God in the flesh 25:07 So let the hallelujahs ring 25:11 That little baby is the king 25:17 That little baby is the king 25:26 Yes! 25:27 Whoo! 25:33 Well, that little baby 25:38 He was born of a virgin 25:41 He was sent down to save us 25:43 And to bear every burden 25:46 He was God in the flesh 25:49 So let the hallelujahs ring 25:53 That little baby is the king 25:57 He was God in the flesh 25:59 So let the hallelujahs ring 26:04 That little baby is the king 26:09 That little baby is the king 26:18 Yes! 26:20 That baby has become the king. 26:22 That's right. 26:24 And I tell you, friends, 26:26 there's a lot of bad theology out there these days 26:29 and the world will tell us, 26:31 there's all these different roads to heaven. 26:34 You just choose the one that suits you 26:36 and your lifestyle, 26:37 and one day we're all just going to appear 26:39 in heaven together. 26:40 But, friend, the Word of God disagrees with that completely. 26:43 In John 14:6, Jesus said, 26:45 "I am the way, the truth, and the life. 26:49 No man comes to Me but by the Father." 26:51 The Book of Acts tells us 26:52 that there's none other name given under heaven 26:55 whereby men must be saved than the name of Jesus. 27:08 There is no Name 27:11 So sweet as Yours 27:15 There is no Name 27:18 More precious, My Lord 27:23 No name in heaven 27:26 Or on earth here below 27:30 Can set captives free 27:34 Or save a lost soul 27:39 There is no Name 27:43 I'd rather hear 27:47 I speak it with reverence 27:50 And I hold It so dear 27:54 I give You all honor 27:58 And all of the praise 28:02 You are worthy and I proclaim 28:08 Jesus, 28:10 There is no other Name! 28:21 I bless Your Name 28:24 In moments of rest 28:28 I bless Your Name 28:31 When I'm put to the test 28:36 Now and forever 28:39 My voice magnifies 28:43 My Savior, Redeemer: 28:47 Jesus Christ 28:52 There is no Name 28:56 I'd rather hear 29:00 I speak it with reverence 29:03 And I hold it so dear 29:07 I give You all honor 29:11 And all of the praise 29:15 You are worthy and I proclaim 29:21 Jesus, there is no other Name! 29:30 Wonderful Counselor 29:34 Everlasting Prince of Peace 29:38 Mighty God, Living Word 29:41 Lord of Lords 29:44 And King of Kings! 29:51 There is no Name 29:57 I'd rather hear 30:00 I speak it with reverence 30:04 And I hold it so dear 30:08 I give You all honor 30:11 And all of the praise 30:15 You are worthy and I proclaim 30:20 He's worthy today. 30:21 You are worthy 30:24 And I proclaim 30:29 You are worthy 30:31 And I proclaim 30:36 Jesus, 30:40 There is no other Name! 30:53 No other Name 31:18 Look who just checked 31:21 Into the barn, into the world 31:24 Into the hearts of the boys and girls 31:26 Never been a baby quite like Him 31:29 Look who just checked in! 31:33 Look who just checked 31:36 Into the barn, into the world 31:39 Into the hearts of the boys and girls 31:41 Never been a baby quite like Him 31:44 Look who just checked in! 31:48 He knew us in the garden 31:49 He brought us through the flood 31:51 He saw the sacrifice of the fire and the blood 31:54 Everybody thought he went away for a while 31:56 Till he came on down in the form of a child 31:59 Look who just checked 32:02 Into the barn, into the world 32:05 Into the hearts of the boys and girls 32:07 Never been a baby quite like Him 32:10 Look who just checked in! 32:18 He made us a promise a long time ago 32:21 The King is coming 32:22 And the world's gonna know 32:24 He reigns in glory in his home on high 32:26 He came down to take us to the sweet pine by 32:29 Look who just checked 32:32 Into the barn, into the world 32:34 Into the hearts of the boys and girls 32:37 Never been a baby quite like Him 32:40 Look who just checked in! 32:44 He's the Prince of peace 32:45 The King of kings 32:47 The Lord of the universe and every little thing 32:49 Emmanuel says time again 32:52 God is with us once again 32:56 Once again 32:59 Look who just checked 33:02 Into the barn, into the world 33:04 Into the hearts of the boys and girls 33:07 Never been a baby quite like Him 33:10 Look who just checked in! 33:14 Look who just checked 33:17 Into the barn, into the world 33:20 Into the hearts of the boys and girls 33:22 Never been a baby quite like Him 33:25 Look who just checked in! 33:28 Never been a baby quite like Him 33:30 Look who just checked in! 33:37 Check out who just checked in! 34:01 I believe that God is sovereign overall 34:08 And He alone 34:10 Is worthy of our praise 34:15 Father, Spirit, Son, 34:19 the Holy Three in One 34:22 He reigns no matter 34:25 What the world may say 34:30 Surely time has come for us 34:34 To take a stand 34:37 To hold to our convictions 34:40 Without shame 34:45 Opposers to the faith 34:49 Abound on every hand 34:52 So the Gospel must be fearlessly 34:56 Proclaimed 35:00 I believe that Jesus 35:03 Is the Holy Son of God 35:07 He came to earth 35:09 To live a perfect life 35:15 I believe He bled and died 35:19 Upon a cruel cross 35:22 And there He made 35:24 The greatest sacrifice 35:30 I believe He rose again 35:33 And that He lives today 35:37 And soon He's coming back 35:40 To earth again 35:45 More than just a creed 35:49 This is what I believe 35:53 Jesus is the only way 36:00 This is my Statement of Faith 36:15 I believe the Bible 36:18 Is the Word of God 36:23 Given to the world 36:25 To show the Way 36:30 No room for compromise 36:33 On His trustworthiness 36:37 Is here for us 36:39 To follow and obey 36:45 There are absolutes 36:48 That cannot be denied 36:52 And what is true 36:54 Forever shall remain 37:00 We made our choice to live 37:03 For Christ the Crucified 37:07 The Living One 37:09 Who is the only Way 37:15 I believe that Jesus 37:18 Is the Holy Son of God 37:22 He came to earth to live 37:25 A perfect life 37:30 I believe He bled and died 37:34 Upon a cruel cross 37:37 And there He made 37:39 The greatest sacrifice 37:45 I believe He rose again 37:49 And that He lives today 37:53 And soon He's coming back 37:55 To earth again 38:01 More than just a creed 38:04 This is what I believe 38:08 Jesus is the only way 38:15 This is my Statement of Faith 38:24 I believe there is one true God, 38:26 and Jesus Christ is His Holy Son 38:29 That he is the Living Word and that by Him and through Him 38:32 all things were made. 38:34 I believe He was conceived by the Holy Spirit 38:36 and born of a Virgin Mary. 38:38 He lived a sinless life, healed the sick, 38:41 gave sight to the blind, 38:42 and brought the dead back to life. 38:45 And I believe at the cross that Jesus, 38:47 God's sacrificial lamb 38:49 shedding His blood was crucified 38:51 as an atonement for the sin of all the world, 38:54 and whosoever believeth in Him will not perish, 38:57 but have everlasting life. 39:00 I believe in the resurrection that on the third day 39:03 He rose from the tomb, 39:04 conquering death, hell and the grave. 39:07 And today He sits at the right hand of the Father 39:10 and that because He lives we shall live also. 39:15 I believe in the church, 39:16 a harbor for souls where God is glorified, 39:20 saints are edified, grace is multiplied, 39:24 and mercy is magnified. 39:27 And I believe in the Holy Spirit 39:29 who lives within all who have been saved 39:31 by grace through faith. 39:33 You see He is our Friend, our Comforter, and our God. 39:37 And I believe that one day 39:39 Jesus will come again and claim His own, 39:43 and He will prove once and for all 39:45 that He is the King of kings and the Lord of lords. 39:51 Amen! 39:54 I believe he rose again 39:57 And that He lives today 40:01 And soon He's coming back 40:03 To earth again 40:09 More than just a creed 40:12 This is what I believe 40:16 Jesus is the only way 40:24 This is my Statement 40:31 of Faith 40:36 My Statement of Faith 41:07 Master, Redeemer 41:12 Savior of the world 41:17 Wonderful, Counselor 41:23 Bright Morning Star 41:31 Lily of the valley 41:36 Provider, and Friend 41:41 He was yesterday 41:43 He'll be tomorrow 41:46 The Beginning 41:49 And End 41:54 But the angel called Him 41:57 Jesus 42:03 Born of a virgin 42:10 Mary called Him 42:13 Jesus 42:18 But I call Him Lord 42:26 Jehovah, Messiah 42:32 Mighty God and King 42:37 Bread of Life 42:40 Lasting words of love 42:43 That I sing 42:49 Light and darkness 42:52 Door to heaven 42:55 My home in the sky 43:00 The Fountain of Living Water 43:06 That never shall run dry 43:13 But the angel called Him 43:17 Jesus 43:22 Born of a virgin 43:30
