Lead Sheet: Let Us Not Forget

Received November 23, 2010

 

I shall remember the deeds of the LORD;

Surely I will remember Your wonders of old.

Psalm 77:11 NASB

 

As I was driving down the road on my way home from working out I began to think about how much Christmas has changed since I was boy. Who would have ever thought it would be considered politically incorrect to even use the term ‘Merry Christmas’? Yet that is the case in this present age of darkness. The chorus of this song came while I kept driving. I simply used my handy dandy iPhone’s voice recorder to sing and capture the words and melody. The rest of the song came as I meditated on what we – even the church – have lost. Christ is the reason we celebrate – regardless of what the world says of does. Let this song serve as a simple reminder.
