Joyeux Noel

"The First Noel" is my favorite Christmas song.  I'm not sure why, but I love singing it every Christmas and I even taught myself how to play it on my keyboard (mini piano).  'Noel' is the French word for Christmas....and 'Joyeux Noel' means Merry Christmas.  There are so many wonderful Christmas carols that we get to belt out every year...at church, to our neighbors and friends, with our family around the piano, or just freely in our cars along with the radio.  What's your favorite Christmas carol? 

A couple years ago, I came across another Christmas song that has become a favorite of mine that I can't wait to play every Christmas.  It's called "My Christmas Prayer" by Bebe Winans.  This is my wish for you and your family this holiday season.

 
My Christmas Prayer
 
I pray for peace
Blessings and honor
Heaven right earth's despair.
This is my Christmas prayer.
 
For those that grieve
God will bring comfort
Laughter will rapture there.
This is my Christmas prayer.
 
See I pray that love will rule and reign.
And I pray that time will rid the pain of this world
As we learn to trust and care.
This is my Christmas prayer.
 
I pray for you
That you triumph and conquer
And possess the strength you need to bare.
This is my Christmas prayer.
 
For those in need
There will be plenty
And each other's burdens share.
This is my Christmas prayer.
 
See I pray that love will rule and reign.
And I pray that time will rid the pain of this world
As we learn to trust and care.
This is my Christmas prayer.
 
So let hope fill our hearts
Shine the light through the dark
All around the world and everywhere.
I will pray.
This is my Christmas prayer.
 
See I pray that love will rule and reign.
And I pray that time will rid the pain of this world
As we learn to trust and care.
This is my Christmas prayer.
This is my Christmas prayer.
