Witness the worship of Mary, Zechariah, the angels and Simeon as you dwell daily on their songs of wonder at the Savior's birth this Advent.
Designed to bring joy during the Christmas season, this 24-day Advent devotional will help you pause and ponder the marvel of Jesus' birth. The short daily reflections will guide you through each song of praise that was poured out around the time of the incarnation.
Written by Tim Chester, these devotions are clear and compelling, inviting your heart and soul and voice to sing in response. Through extracts at the end of each devotion, Chester's voice is joined by Christians from the past, like William Young Fullerton, Phillips Brooks and Charles Wesley, whose Christmas hymns we still sing.
You'll be stirred to join in the praise as you reflect on the extraordinary truth of Christ's birth.
Tim Chester and Emu Music have joined forces to set a version of the Magnificat to music with a song called Holy Is His Name. An audio file and sheet music are available to help you respond in praise like Mary to the good news of the gospel.
