04:01 Down from His glory, ever living story, 04:10 my God and Savior came; and Jesus was His name. 04:17 Born in a manger, to His own a stranger; 04:26 a man of sorrows, tears, and agony. 04:40 What condescension, bringing us redemption, 04:48 that in the dead of night not one faint hope in sight. 04:55 God, gracious, tender, laid aside His splendor, 05:04 stooping to woo, to win, to save my soul. 05:16 Oh, how I love Him. How I adore Him. 05:25 My breath, my sunshine. My all in all. 05:33 The great Creator became my Savior, 05:40 and all God's fullness dwelleth in Him. 05:57 Without reluctance, flesh and blood His substance, 06:04 He took the form of man, revealed the hidden plan. 06:11 Oh glorious mystery, sacrifice of Calvary; 06:18 and now I know Thou art the great I AM. 06:27 Oh, how I love Him. How I adore Him. 06:35 My breath, my sunshine. My all in all. 06:42 The great Creator became my Savior, 06:49 and all God's fullness dwelleth in Him. 07:00 The great Creator became my Savior, 07:12 and all God's fullness 07:17 dwelleth in Him. 07:36 Welcome to this time of worshiping our Lord and Savior, 07:39 Jesus Christ. 07:41 Celebrating the wondrous occasion when He wrapped 07:44 Himself in flesh and became like us to show us 07:48 how to be like Him. 07:50 I hope our time together will encourage you in this season. 07:53 When God sent His Son to that little town of Bethlehem 07:56 the shepherds immediately left their flocks 07:58 and went searching for this Jesus. 08:01 Nothing is mentioned about them taking time 08:04 to get cleaned up first, 08:06 though this was clearly a special occasion. 08:09 They just hurried off to find Jesus. 08:12 And you and I are invited to seek Him just as we are, 08:17 and allow Him to change us as we spend time with Him. 08:21 And allow Him to transform us into the people, 08:24 the person He wants us to be. 08:27 I can truly say that I will never be the same 08:30 after meeting Jesus Christ. 08:42 Angels appeared unto shepherds 08:46 telling the news of His birth. 08:51 Glory to God in the highest, 08:55 God had come down to the earth. 09:00 Shepherds sought till they found Him, 09:04 and wisemen brought treasures and myrrh. 09:09 Surely one spoke to the others, 09:13 "We will never be what we once were." 09:21 Glory to God, glory to God in the highest. 09:29 Peace and goodwill, peace and goodwill to all men. 09:38 Emmanuel, Emmanuel has forgiven my sins. 09:47 Glory to God, I am not what I have been. 10:00 Oh, how my heart well remembers 10:04 the first time I heard the sweet news 10:08 of this Jesus born of a virgin; 10:13 carpenter, King of the Jews. 10:17 Though I was not with the shepherds, 10:21 and I had less to bring than wisemen, 10:26 I too have been changed since I've met Him; 10:31 I am not what I have been. 10:37 Glory to God, glory to God in the highest. 10:46 Peace and goodwill, peace and goodwill to all men. 10:55 Emmanuel, Emmanuel has forgiven my sins. 11:03 Glory to God, I am not what I have been. 11:12 Emmanuel, Emmanuel has forgiven all my sins. 11:21 Glory to God, I am not what I have been. 11:31 Glory to God, I am not what I have been. 11:50 I'll never be the same again. 11:54 A great old hymn, carol, at this time of year; 11:58 I love to sit at the piano, and whoever is in the room 12:01 I just encourage them to sing along. 12:03 So pretend you're right here in this room, 12:06 and sing along with me, alright? 12:34 Angels from the realms of glory, 12:39 wing your flight o'er all the earth; 12:43 ye who sang creation's story now proclaim Messiah's birth. 12:50 Come and worship, come and worship, 12:54 worship Christ, the newborn King. 13:02 Shepherds in the field abiding, 13:06 watching o'er your flocks by night, 13:10 God with man is now residing; yonder shines the infant light. 13:18 Come and worship, come and worship, 13:22 worship Christ, the newborn King. 13:30 Sages, leave your contemplations; 13:34 brighter visions beam afar. 13:38 Seek the great Desire of Nations; 13:42 ye have seen His natal star. 13:47 Come and worship, come and worship, 13:51 worship Christ, the newborn King. 14:05 Saints before the altar bending, watching long in hope and fear. 14:13 Suddenly the Lord, descending, in His temple shall appear. 14:22 Come and worship, come and worship, 14:26 worship Christ, the newborn King. 14:34 Come and worship, come and worship, 14:39 worship Christ, the newborn King. 14:54 Here I am to worship, here I am to bow down, 15:01 here I am to say that You're my God. 15:07 You're altogether lovely, altogether worthy, 15:13 altogether wonderful to me. 15:18 Sing that to the Lord. 15:40 You're altogether lovely, altogether worthy, 15:47 You're altogether wonderful to me. 15:57 So here I am to worship. 16:04 Here I am to worship. 16:18 You know, God has always wanted to be with His people. 16:23 He breathed His breath into us and created us in His image. 16:27 We are made for a relationship with Him. 16:29 God talked with Adam and Eve in the garden. 16:33 And as the Israelites fled Egypt, God was with them 16:36 as a pillar of smoke by day and fire by night. 16:40 On many occasions, God was with His people as a cloud. 16:44 None of those produced the effect that He wanted, 16:47 so God became like you and me. 16:51 He walked among us, He ate, and laughed, and cried, slept, 16:55 felt tire, angry, and happy. 16:58 The Creator of the world became as one of the created 17:02 because He longs to be with us. 17:05 And He was willing to do whatever it took, 17:08 even setting aside His glory, humbling Himself to death, 17:13 death on a cross, to be with us forever. 17:18 This is a wonderful medley of worship songs. 17:24 I encourage you just to, just to worship. 17:35 He came in sweet surrender to a manger here below; 17:47 He came in love so tender 17:54 so all the world would know. 18:01 The Savior sent from heaven, 18:06 born that holy night, 18:12 Jesus our Emmanuel 18:19 came to give us life. 18:25 The Savior sent from heaven, 18:33 born that holy night, 18:38 Jesus our Emmanuel 18:44 came to give us life. 18:54 Emmanuel, 19:01 Emmanuel, 19:07 His name is called Emmanuel. 19:18 God with us, revealed in us, 19:29 His name is called Emmanuel. 19:42 Emmanuel, Emmanuel, 19:55 His name is called Emmanuel. 20:07 God with us, revealed in us, 20:19 His name is called Emmanuel. 20:38 Jesus, the Son of God, 20:46 born to be our Savior. 20:54 Jesus, the Son of God, 21:03 born to be our Lord. 21:12 Jesus, the Son of God, 21:20 born to be My Savior. 21:29 Jesus, the Son of God, 21:38 born to be my Lord. 21:54 His name is Wonderful, 22:00 His name is Wonderful, 22:06 His name is Wonderful;

29:31 and that's a promise you can hold onto. 29:38 It's easy to forget in times likes these, 29:46 but Jesus loves you. 29:55 It's so easy to forget with all that's going on around us, 30:04 whatever your circumstances are, 30:08 don't you ever forget 30:15 Jesus loves you. 30:25 You know, Jesus is love. 30:28 And He is peace. 30:31 He's peace personified. 30:33 The Bible tells us that when Jesus speaks peace, 30:38 peace happens. 30:41 He calmed the storms, He healed the sick, 30:43 He raised the dead. 30:46 And Jesus is still the peace amidst our crisis 30:51 and our emergencies. 30:54 His peace guards our heart and mind. 30:57 His peace exceeds my limited understanding. 31:02 It doesn't even make sense to me, 31:05 but it's exactly what I need. 31:08 But the greatest peace is when Jesus brings us 31:12 peace with God. 31:15 And as God's children, that peace gets us through 31:20 the dark days of life. 31:21 Because we can know without a shadow of a doubt 31:26 that God is in control. 31:29 As you look around and see how crazy things are, 31:32 believe me, God is in control. 31:35 And just as He is the Prince of Peace, 31:39 so He calls us, me and you, to be makers of peace. 31:43 Jesus said, "Blessed are the peacemakers, 31:46 for they shall be called Sons of God." 31:51 You and I can participate with Him in bringing peace 31:55 to a broken world 31:57 as we look forward to the future kingdom of peace. 32:02 So my prayer is, Lord, make me a channel 32:08 of your peace. 32:39 Make me a channel of Your peace. 32:43 Where there is hatred, let me bring Your love;
