Advent

I'm working on a sermon of hope and waiting. It's about the Advent season, and I am really excited about it. Problem being, I'm experiencing a little writers block right now. I guess I should go ahead and take a break.
But really, this is a fun message to write. I never realized how much I love about the Christmas season, but it just keeps coming! Plus, it's an excuse to listen to Christmas music all day.

The song I think I'm going to focus on is "God of us" by Shaun Groves

Hope has come
To the world
Heaven's son is
Born to earth
To hide beneath our
Flesh and bone
Call us friend
And call this home
Emmanuel
God with us
God with us
Emmanuel
God with us
Love has come
Weighted down
By splintered beam
And thorny crown
To take our nails
And taste our steel
Spill his life
And grace reveal
Savior
God for us
God for us
Savior
God for us
Heaven come
And take our hand
Whisper till we understand
Move our stubborn
Hearts to love
The very least
As you love us
Spirit be
God in us
God in us
Spirit be
God in us
Emmanuel
Savior
Spirit be
God of us
God of us
