Don't wish me Merry Xmas Or Happy Holiday, Put Christ back into Christmas On this blessed holy day Put Christ back into Christmas Like on that silent night When the star of Bethlehem Gave way to new born life. Let all the world give glory To Christ the King of Kings Let children hear the story Of love our Saviour brings. Put Christ back into Christmas Like on that silent night When the star of Bethlehem Gave way to new born life. That's the way I remember Dad teaching it to me many years ago.
X first became a replacement for the word Christ on Xmas cards back in the sixteenth century. It was not a secular attempt to take Christ out of Christmas which is a popular belief.
There are two different twists in the lyrics of the song. one is I"ll be Back again some day... ( vague but reassuring) the other I"ll be back on Christmas day- which is in line with the Season. If this lyric is used- it is the only mention of Christmas in the entire song- snow, of course, but follow the lyrics-it does not once mention Christmas, or such props as Santa, Trees, decorations ( like the Five and Ten store in one of the Crosby songs)l.
A group called Wham! first came out with the song entitled last christmas. George Michael wrote the lyrics however. And who can forget Elvis gettin it in back in his day?
Martin Luther (1483 - 1546) did not "start" the Christmas tradition. The "Christmas tradition" dates back to at least the 4th century, though early Christians were celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ long before that.
The Story of Christmas is linked with the birth of Jesus Christ. The History of Christmas can be traced back all the way back to the beginning of Christianity. According to the History of Christmas, Jesus Christ, the son of God, was born to his mother Mary in a humble manger in the small town of Bethlehem now modern day Israel. A shining star appeared over Bethlehem and guided three wise men to the manger were the Christ child lay. The three wise men brought gifts to the baby Jesus because they recognized that this child was going to be the savior or Messiah of his chosen people. So NO not all people celebrate Christmas some celebrate it in very different ways!
Yule. Winter Solstice. It is still celebrated today, though most people call it christmas.
There are many online sites that list the lyrics to the song Back at One by Brian McKnight. Three choices include AZ Lyrics, Metro Lyrics, and Lyrics VIP.
Bells are a Christian Symbol dating back to Medieval times when bells were the main source of communication to gather the town together. It is symbolic of Christ being the High Priest, as priests wore bells on their clothing. It is also symbolic of the angels spreading a joyous sound celebrating Christ's birth.
