For God So Loved
Jasmine Murray's song "For God so Loved" reflects on the true meaning of Christmas, moving beyond the lights and festivities to the profound truth of God's love. The lyrics emphasize that the holiday's greatest message is the incarnation—God leaving His throne to dwell among humanity as a baby in a manger. Murray highlights the gift of Jesus as the ultimate expression of divine love, offering salvation to all. The song gently reminds listeners that Christmas is not just about expectation and wishes, but about the Savior who came to bring peace and redemption.
Christmas tells me
A little music and some lights
Glowing bright on Main Street
And there's magic in the night
Christmas tells me
For kids from 1 to 92
It's a time of expectation
Hoping wishes will come true
A thousand things the holiday
Speaks for me to hear
But the greatest truth
Christmas tells me loud and clear
God so loved the world
He left His throne on high
He came to be with us
One quiet holy night
And the greatest gift of all
He offered everyone
For God so loved the world
He gave His only Son
Christmas tells me
The Gift that Mary holds
He's Peace on Earth, Immanuel
Wrapped in swaddling clothes
Christmas tells me
Oh, if it tells me anything
It's our Maker in a manger
Our Savior and our King
Oh, God so loved the world
He left His throne on high
He came to be with us
One quiet holy night
And the greatest gift of all
He offered everyone
For God so loved the world
He gave His only Son
Ooh...
For God so loved the world
He left His throne on high
He came to be with us
One quiet holy night
And the greatest gift of all
He offered everyone
For God so loved the world
He gave His only Son...
Oh, For all of us
He gave His only Son...
He gave His only Son
