Love Came Down At Christmas - Jars of Clay

I love the meaning of "love came down at Christmas"... I went to search a bit and here's what I found of the origin of the lyrics...

Love Came Down at Christmas
The words and lyrics of the old carol 'Love came down at Christmas' were written by the famous poet Christina Georgina Rossetti 1830-1894). The famous poet Christina Georgina Rossetti was English and her father was also a poet, Gabriele Rossetti.

Here's the lyrics...

Love Came Down at Christmas

Love came down at Christmas,
Love all lovely, love divine;
Love was born at Christmas,
Star and angels gave the sign.

Worship we the Godhead,
Love incarnate, love divine;
Worship we our Jesus:
But wherewith for sacred sign?

Love shall be our token,
Love be yours and love be mine,
Love to God and all men,
Love for plea and gift and sign.



Here's the vidz from Youtube. This is the version sung by Jars of Clay. Listen carefully at the lyrics and enjoy reflecting with the artwork and lyrics. The vidz is beautifully drawn I'd say~~
