Christmas Greetings!

Merry Christmas from the Sharbaughs! The text at the bottom of our Christmas greeting is from the song "Celebrate the Day" by Relient K. You can listen to the whole song via youtube embedded below (lyrics are also posted below that). Enjoy!




Celebrate the Day  {Relient K}
And with this Christmas wish is missed
The point I could convey
If only I could find the words to say to let You know 
How much You've touched my life

Because here is where You're finding me, 
In the exact same place as New Year's eve
And from a lack of my persistency
We're less than half as close as I want to be

And the first time that You opened Your eyes 
Did You realize that You would be my Savior
And the first breath that left Your lips
Did You know that it would change this world forever

And the first time that You opened Your eyes 
Did You realize that You would be my Savior
And the first breath that left Your lips
Did You know that it would change this world forever

And so this Christmas I'll compare 
The things I felt in prior years
To what this midnight made so clear
That You have come to meet me here

To look back and think that
This baby would one day save me
In the hope that what You did
That you were born so I might live
To look back and think that
This baby would one day save me

And the first time that You opened Your eyes 
Did You realize that You would be my Savior
And the first breath that left Your lips
Did You know that it would change this world forever

And the first time that You opened Your eyes 
Did You realize that You would be my Savior
And the first breath that left Your lips
Did You know that it would change this world forever

And I, I celebrate the day
That You were born to die
So I could one day pray for You to save my
life
