Who Will Show Us the Way?

“Who will show us the way to Bethlehem?” asks Kimberlee Conway Ireton.The prophets, she said, referring to the Advent candles, help show us the way, along with Mary and Joseph. The shepherds help show us the way, and the angels.And Kimberlee, she helps show us the way.And you.And me.And, as I enjoy Christmas music this season, even James Taylor is showing us the way.“Go Tell It on the Mountain” reminds us all to show others the way to Bethlehem, to Jesus.Go tell it on the mountainOver the hills and everywhereGo tell it on the mountainThat Jesus is born.Go tell it on the mountainOver the hills and everywhereGo tell it on the mountainThat Jesus Christ is born.Shepherds watching over their flocks by nightAnd out of the darkness there rose a heavenly lightThey feared and they trembled when high above the earthThere rang out an angel chorus singin’ ’bout the Savior’s birthGo tell it on the mountainOver the hills and everywhereGo tell it on the mountainThat Jesus Christ is born.Guess I was a seeker, I saw them both night and dayAsked the Lord to help me, and He showed me the wayDown in a manger, a humble child was bornGod sent His salvation on that Christmas morn.Go tell it on the mountainOver the hills and everywhereGo tell it on the mountainThat Jesus Christ is born.

Jesus Christ is born.Jesus shows us the way.Jesus is the way.Now let’s go…and tell it.

      I was thinking of this performance last night. A friend sent me a link to the video about this time last year.

      So happy to find it here today. Thank you, Ann.

        I love his version of “Go Tell It on the Mountain.” Of course, I love his version of all those Christmas songs…and I just found out that Charity is also a big James Taylor fan.

        Glad I could provide a helpful link!
