I remembered hearing this song for the first time last year. I instantly loved it simply because it's true. I chose this song for my TSMSS this week and to my surprise, when I started singing these lines --- Where's the line to see Jesus? │He was born for me │Santa Claus brought me presents │But Christ gave His life for me.--- I burst into tears uncontrollably.
I hope we'll not get so wrapped up with the season's busyness, but let's take time to remember why we are celebrating Christmas.
Christmas time was approaching
Snow was starting to fall
Shoppers choosing their presents
People filling the mall
Children waiting for Santa
With excitement and glee
A little boy tugged my sweater
Looked up and asked me
Where's the line to see Jesus?
Is He here at the store?
If Christmas time is His birthday
Why don't we see Him more?
As I stood in amazement
At this message profound
I looked down to thank him
He was no where around
The little boy at the mall
Might as well have had wings
As the tears filled my eyes
Thought I heard him sing
Where's the line to see Jesus?
Is He here at the store?
If Christmas time is His birthday
Why don't we see Him more?
Where's the line to see Jesus?
He was born for me
Santa Claus brought me presents
But Christ gave His life for me
In the blink of an eye
At the sound of His trump
We'll all stand in line at His throne
Every knee shall bow down
Every tongue will confess
That Jesus Christ is Lord
(Repeat Chorus)
Where's the line?
Where's the line?
Where's the line for the Lord?

This is precious, thanks for sharing.
Thank you dear Sister! Love you - been thinking about you.
A great choice, Pia. I haven't heard this song yet this year.
Praying for your dad. My dad had lung cancer last year but didn't find out until it was too late for treatments. My heart goes out to you as your dad fights to live. The Lord will be merciful.
Lovely...
