Words & Music: Dennis Jernigan

July 8, 2014

 

Verse

Think of the wonder of Christmas!

When children of all ages dream. 

Think of the wonder of Christmas! 

We celebrate the birthday! 

Celebrate the birthday of a King! 

 

Think of the joy found in Christmas! 

The lights decorating the tree! 

Think of the joy found in Christmas! 

To know that Jesus came for! 

Know that Jesus gave just for me! 

 

 

Joy to the world! We sing! 

Joy to the world He brings! 

Joy to the world! We sing! 

Jesus is King! 

Jesus is King! 

 

Chorus

Sing, "Merry Christmas!" 

Sing, "Merry Christmas!" 

Jesus has conquered sin and the grave! 

Sing, "Merry Christmas!" 

Sing, "Merry Christmas!" 

Gift from God given to us just to say,

 "Merry Christmas! 

Merry Christmas!" 

 

Verse

There I see Joseph and Mary 

Surrounded by shepherds and kings! 

Animals surrounding the manger! 

Star above the stable! 

There for all men able to see! 

 

Lying so still in the manger, 

Jesus, the baby, asleep. 

Given a gift for all people. 

One day the Gift would die for! 

One day the Gift would rise for you and me! 

 

Joy to the world! We sing! 

Joy to the world He brings! 

Joy to the world! We sing! 

Jesus is King! 

Jesus is King! 

 

Chorus

Sing, "Merry Christmas!" 

Sing, "Merry Christmas!" 

Jesus has conquered sin and the grave! 

Sing, "Merry Christmas!" 

Sing, "Merry Christmas!" 

Gift from God given to us just to say,

"Merry Christmas! 

Merry Christmas!" 

 

 

 

Sing Merry Christmas - Song History

Words & Music: Dennis Jernigan

This Christmas song came in the middle
of the summer! I love Christmas music
ANY time of the year, but the story
behind this song is quite simple. When my
children were small, I wrote them stories.
One story in particular was called
The Christmas Dream. It was written for
my son, Judah, as a way of explaining
the reason for the birth of Jesus - to
explain the Gospel. During the past year,
I sent several of those stories I had written
so long ago to my publisher. Soon, I heard
they were interested in publishing all of
my children's stories! As part of that
publishing arrangement, I was asked
to produce audio versions of each book.
During that period I thought it would be
nice to have a song for each audio book.
As I thought about the story and how
Judah experienced the wonder of God
and of Christmas during the story,
I began to hear this song in my heart
and mind. Remember to enjoy the
presence of God this Christmas season.
Become like little children full of awe
and wonder at Who God is. rejoice!

For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us; 

And the government will rest on His shoulders; 

And His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, 

Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.

 

Isaiah 9:6 NASB
