White Christmas

I really have to pretend when it comes to a white Christmas. There are good things about southern California weather - we never get snowed in, never have to shovel snow, etc. But snow falling on Christmas morning sounds fun!

A few years ago, a friend told me about Martha Munizzi's Christmas CD. She and Israel Houghton wrote an incredible song called "White Christmas". I have sung it in church a few times, and love listening to it each year. I hope you'll enjoy the words.

Verse 1
Life use to be so dark and cold,
A bitter wind blowin' through my soul
But now I've got to let you know
Everything changed it's a miracle

Hard to explain how it came to be,
Yesterday I was blind, today I see
This love I have so wonderful,
Cause everything changed it's a miracle

Oh what a beautiful season
Oh and Jesus is the reason

Chorus
It's gonna be a white Christmas
Into the new and out of the old
Though my sins were red as crimson
Now they're white as snow
It's gonna be a white Christmas
The past is passed away
And it's a brand new day because of Jesus
It's gonna be a white, white Christmas

Verse 2
This can be the year for change
Where Christmas happens everyday
And joy returns to you in full
This is your day for a miracle

Dreams and destiny renewed
What He's done for me He can do for you
So open up your heart once more
This is your day for a miracle

Bridge
More than just a fantasy
It can be reality
If you believe, it's not a dream

Chorus
It's gonna be a white Christmas
Into the new and out of the old
Though my sins were red as crimson
Now they're white as snow
It's gonna be a white Christmas
The past is passed away
And it's a brand new day because of Jesus
It's gonna be a white, white Christmas

So no matter what the weather, we can all have a white Christmas because of Jesus!
