Story Behind The Song
A Christmas Song describing the joyous event which happened two thousand years ago when God became man. I have this feeling that there should be more new Christmas songs that celebrates the Birth of Jesus and proudly sings about it. I have written about twenty Christmas songs with most of them having the Birth of Jesus as the theme. I do have a few about the event of Christmas and the kids around the Christmas tree opening up presents or the family driving around looking at the Christmas lights but most are Christ centered.
Song Description
The Birth Of Jesus is the most important event since the creation of the Universe or the first muffle of the Big Bang or whatever one believes started all this. No matter what is the truth to the beginnings, the Birth of Jesus accented the continuum of space time and conscienous stream of matter, thought and emotions that spiritual essence was set forth as a pararrel world leadsding to eternal bliss and happiness and where death has been beaten back.

Lyrics
DOWN THROUGH THE AGES
Words & music by Michael Akin © 2007
Down through the ages
Across every land
We celebrate when Jesus
Was born in Bethlehem
Born in a manger
The first Christmas Day
Baby Jesus sleeps on the hay
Holy Night
The stars shined bright
Voices of Angels sounded heavenly
And from the villages
People came to see
To worship and adore Him
All on bended knee
Angels were singing
Kings were bringing
Gifts of gold
Frankincense and myrrh
Shepherds were praying
Children were saying
This is the Lord of Heaven and of Earth
Holy Night
The stars shined bright
Voices of Angels sounded heavenly
And from the villages
People came to see
To worship and adore Him
All on bended knee
This time is Christmas
It happens once a year
It is filled with goodness
It is filled with cheer
2000 years ago
God became Man
When he was born in Bethlehem
Holy Night
The stars shined bright
Voices of Angels sounded heavenly
And from the villages
People came to see
To worship and adore Him
All on bended knee
Down through the ages
Across every land
We celebrate when Jesus
Was born in Bethlehem
We celebrate when Jesus
Was born in Bethlehem
