The First Heavenly Night

To be inspired go to Spiritual Sundays here

Do you ever wonder how Mary and Joseph felt that first Christmas?
If there had been a white dove nesting on the rafters of that humble stable,
was she the first to sing a lullaby to baby Jesus? 
I wish I could have been there!

This is my new favorite Christmas song.



Heavenly Night

Jesus was born in Bethlehem

There were some shepherds and wise men

And Mary and Joseph thanked the Lord

For bringing salvation in their little boy

And the white dove cooed

And the angels sang on high

Don’t you wish you could have been there

On that heavenly night

Jesus was born to set us free

He came to earth for you and me

And every Christmas I thank the Lord

For bringing salvation in His little boy

And the white dove cooed

And the angles sang on high

Don’t you wish you could have been there

On that heavenly night

                                                      Chorus

Heavenly night when Christ was born

Heavenly night

Heavenly night

Close your eyes and say a prayer

Pray for the children everywhere

Pray for the babies where soldiers fight

That they might know peace for one night

Let the white dove coo

Let the angles sing on high

And pray for peace for just one night

For one heavenly night

  3. That is a lovely song.
    I read the article about the children. We know things like that do happen, but it still jolts you when you hear it. So many children hurt. It is so organized in other countries, but it does happen here too, especially considering what happens to children within their own families.

  4. I would have loved to have been there too. I had never heard the dove idea, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if there was not one there. Interesting thought.
