What Will You Do?

Will you stand by and not speak up?
Will you let those that are corrupt,
Let their wickedness in this world errupt,
But not let our message be shut up.

Pray for the land, that they will come back to Your hand,
That we will proclaim Christ as we stand.
For the rulers of this earth cannot find peace,
Until You return, the fighting and wars will not cease.

Pray for the home, where our life is the center,
May Your presence and Spirit enter.
For where You make Your place,
We experience Your love and Your grace.

Listen Closely

Listen closely and you will hear,
Angelic voices of joy and cheer.
On a night long ago, in Bethelhem,
We heard the great news of Him.

Listen closely and you will hear,
A message of joy and not of fear.
For He was born to save us then,
When we were deep in sin.

Listen closely and you will hear,
And you will enjoy what you hold dear.
For in the quiet of that night,
We were given a Great Light.

Listen closely and you will hear,
A message of love and cheer.
For love came in this child,
And lo, in this manger mild.
