#hark the herald angels queue

[morfinwen]

Away in a manger a baby is born The Sovereign of heaven whom angels adore Is wrapped in the weakness of our mortal frame The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay

Away in a manger a servant is born Made nothing to raise up the hopeless and poor With grace as His burden and love as His yoke The gentle Lord Jesus will shepherd our souls

Away in a manger a Savior is born The crown He'll be given will pierce Him with thorns The King will be cursed with our sin and our shame The blameless Lord Jesus will die in our place

Away in a manger a Lion is born The darkness will tremble at His mighty roar His mercy will triumph and death will be slain The risen Lord Jesus forever will reign

All glory to Jesus forever We lift high the name of our Savior All glory to Jesus forever We lift high the name of our Savior

All glory to Jesus forever We lift high the name of our Savior All glory to Jesus forever We lift high the name of our Savior

Here’s another track from my new album, Hide or Seek, which will be available for free download on my NoiseTrade page next Friday. In case you missed it, I released the first track from the album two days ago and track two yesterday. I will be releasing a track a day from the album over the next seven days leading up to the album’s official release. 

Today’s song is called “On TV.” It’s about finding meaning in this crazy world, and I hope you like it. Here are the lyrics:

“On TV” by Joe Boettcher

Won’t you stay with me? I’ve done all I can to convince the world we’re free, but they don’t believe me, so let’s just leave.

I can’t change their hearts, ‘cause what’s top of the queue always tops all the charts. Don’t matter where we are, so let’s go far.

Let’s fly the white flag and retreat. It’s madness out there in the street. Haven’t you seen what they’re saying on TV?

Maybe if it was sixty years ago. I could put up with the world if the world were moving slow, but I’m paralyzed from info overload, so let’s just go.

Let’s fly the white flag and retreat. It’s madness out there in the street. Haven’t you seen what they’re saying on TV?

Open your ears! Open your ears! What do you hear? What do you hear?

Hark, the herald angels sing, Glory to the newborn King! Hark, the herald angels sing, Glory to the newborn King!

Even on TV.

Thanks for listening!

-Joe

Then pealed the bells more loud and deep "God is not dead, nor doth He sleep. "The wrong shall fail, the right prevail "With peace on Earth, good will to men."

How low was our Redeemer brought, the King who held the stars Lay helpless in a maiden's arms and pressed against her heart While sheep and cattle raised their voice the babe could speak no words The ever flowing Spring of Joy had come to share our thirst

How low was our Redeemer brought, the Lord the worlds obeyed Would stumble as He learned to walk upon the ground He'd made The One the angels bowed before would kneel to wash our feet And be at home among the poor though He owned everything

Gloria, gloria in the highest Gloria, gloria in the highest

How low was our Redeemer brought to raise us from our shame And now the highest praise of all belongs to Jesus' name The Healer wounded on a tree to bear our grief and sin The King gave up His crown so we could ever reign with Him

Gloria, gloria in the highest Gloria, gloria in the highest Gloria, gloria in the highest Gloria, gloria in the highest Gloria, gloria in the highest Gloria, gloria in the highest Gloria, gloria in the highest Gloria, gloria in the highest

How low was our Redeemer brought to raise us from our shame And now the highest praise of all belongs to Jesus' name
