Song 1:
Now may the fragrance of His peace
Soar through your heart like the dove released:
Hide in His wings, oh weary, distant soul,
He’ll guide your spirit home.And may His love poured from on high
Flow to the depths of your deepest sigh;
Oh come and drink from the only living stream
And on His shoulder lean.And may the hope that will not deceive
Through every pain bring eternal ease;
There is no night that can steal the promises
His coming brings to us.So may His joy rush over you;
Delight in the path He has called you to;
May all your steps walk in Heaven’s endless light
Beyond this Christmas night.(Keith & Kristyn Getty)

“May the Fragrance of His Peace”
by Margaret Becker, Kristyn Getty & Joanne Hogg
Merry Christmas to you, Juno and a year full of happiness and success. And many thanks for the time you devoted to this wonderful calendar. Your LJj presence is always instructing, entertaining and inspiring, but this project particualrly impressed me, knowing how scarce your time is and how short your days. Bless you for devoting what you must need to your LJ friends.
That is an amazing blessing! I feel joy rushing over me as I read it. This advent calendar has been such a wonderful thing to look forward to everyday, in the midst of a very stressful month. Thank you for all your work and love poured into it.
And thanks for today’s songs — I adore Margaret Becker. 🙂
Thank you for your kind words.
Sometimes we humans are pretty stupid, aren’t we? Instead of using the dark time of the year to grow quiet and gather strength, we start rushing around like headless chickens … turning holy days into stress. If I helped find my friends a few calm moments, then that’s a wonderful gift for me. 🙂
I hope you are having happy holidays!
