Jesus' Birthday



Our family gathered in snowy Montana for Christmas.
We were all together for a Christmas Eve Brunch at Lone Mountain Ranch.
With loved ones nearby, we marked the celebration of Emmanuel's birth.
A favorite hymn I learned as a child was written by Peder Knudsen.

"I am so glad each Christmas Eve,
The night of Jesus' birth!
Then like the sun the Star shone forth,
And angels sang on earth.

The little Child in Bethlehem,
He was a King indeed!
For he came down from heaven above
To help a world in need.

He dwells again in heaven's realm,
The Son of God today;
And still He loves His little ones
And hears them when they pray."
