God with us.
My son Aaron was our first born child. He was an early talker. Once when he was about 18 months old we were visiting his grandma and grandpa Ledgerwood and while walking through grandma’s garden, he pulled up a tomato stake, using it as a pretend microphone said to his audience, “Christmas is for Jesus! Everybody sing!” and then proceeded to sing a carol.
Fast forward 36 years, when Mary was pulling together the talented folks to help us with her Christmas album, we leaned pretty hard on family, especially our son Aaron. He is a gifted singer and can fill in harmonies just by listening and singing it.
This song is one of my top 3 favorites of Mary’s album. It starts out with four of our grandchildren singing away in a manger and then Mary sings a verse, then Mary and Aaron sing a duet and then Aaron takes a verse. I get weepy every time I listen.
Please click on the link and listen for free. I hope that you enjoy this song. If you do enjoy it, please share it with your family and friends.
Is it safe to say it now? We are officially in the Christmas season, so… Merry Christmas!
