A Baby Changes Everything

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL!

This is the day that we are privileged to celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior. One of the songs that captured my heart this year was a song by Faith Hill called A Baby Changes Everything. When I first saw the book my first thought was to agree completely. I thought it was just a book and song about being a mother. However, after reading the lyrics and listening to the song, I quickly discovered that it was not a song about just any mother. This was a song about Jesus' mother. Can you even imagine? I know what I was like when I was a teenager, and I was not ready to have a baby - especially the King of Kings!

If you have a moment, click on the video to listen to this beautiful song.



Teenage girl, much too young
Unprepared for what's to come
A baby changes everything

Not a ring on her hand
All her dreams and all her plans
A baby changes everything
A baby changes everything

The man she loves she's never touched
How will she keep his trust?
A baby changes everything
A baby changes everything

And she cries, ooh, she cries
Ooh, oh

She has to leave, go far away
Heaven knows she can't stay
A baby changes everything

She can feel it's coming soon
There's no place, there's no room
A baby changes everything
A baby changes everything

And she cries, and she cries
Oh, she cries

Shepherds all gather 'round (Shepherds all they gather 'round)
Up above the star shines down (Star shines down)
A baby changes everything

Choir of angels sing
Glory to the newborn King
A baby changes everything
A baby changes everything
Eveything, everything, everything

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

My whole life has turned around
I was lost, but now I'm found
A baby changes everything, yeah
A baby changes everything

~~Faith Hill~~
