基督教认为,有一婴孩,为世人而生,这就是圣诞节的由来。这个婴孩便是耶稣(耶稣意为“救世主”),也是圣经旧约中早就预言的弥赛亚。当时,以色列人民经过多年的颠沛流离和受尽欺压,早就期盼着弥赛亚的降生,因此,耶稣的降生是个大喜信息,而这信息不仅关乎以色列人,更是关乎万民的信息。就在这天晚上,上帝的独生子道成肉身,谦卑降生,且生在马槽中。

A ray of hope flickers in the sky A tiny star lights up way up highAll across the land dawns a brand new morn", This comes to pass when a child is born.A silent wish sails the seven seas The winds of change whisper in the treesAnd the walls of doubt crumble tossed and torn, This comes to pass when a child is born.A rosy dawn settles all around You got to feel you"re on solid groundFor a spell or two no one seems forlorn This come to pass when a child is born.it's all a dream, an illusion now.it must come true some time soon somehowall across the land dawns a brand new morn',this comes to pass when a child is born.when a child is born



Mary's Boy Child。很轻快的歌。

Long time ago in Bethlehem,So the Holy Bible say,Mary's boy child, Jesus Christ,Was born on Christmas day.Hark, now hear the angels sing,A new king born today,And man will live forever more,Because of Christmas Day.While shepherds watched their flocks by night,Them see a bright new shining star,Them hear a choir sing,The music seemed to come from afar.Now Joseph and his wife Mary,Come to Bethlehem that night,Them find no place to born she child,Not a single room was in sight.Hark, now hear the angels sing...etc.By and by they find a little nookIn a stable all forlorn,And in a manger cold and dark,Mary's little boy was born.Hark, now here the angels sings.Trumpets sound and angels sing,Listen to what they say,That man will live forever more,Because of Christmas Day.



所有的圣诞音乐都关乎一个主题:耶稣的降生,或描述耶稣降生的场景:天边明亮的启明星,报信的天使,赞美的天军,伯利恒野地的牧羊人,东方来朝拜的博士……这是希律王号令残酷迫害犹太人的危险而日子,因着这个孩子的降生,一切都安静美好,这样黎明前的盼望,困境中的喜乐,从2008年前的牧羊人,流传到2008年之后的每一个人心里。

 

silent night


Silent night, holy night
all is calm, all is bright
round your virgin mother and child
holy infant so tender and mild
sleeping heavenly peace
sleeping heavenly peace

oh holy night

 

 


或着重因着耶稣的救赎,人类得到的欢欣与平安。“诸天传扬他的手段。”喜乐、欢欣、欢腾是这些歌曲的主题词,听到这些歌的时候,仿佛天上的飞鸟,马槽中的牛羊一齐歌唱,赞美与喜乐的歌声响彻云霄,又从田间的每一条小路上传扬。

荣耀歌


一位好心、善良的主教,成为后来世界闻名的圣诞老人的起源,他带给人们,尤其是孩子们以温暖、爱与希望,即使不是基督徒,同样能在每年的这一天,喜笑代替忧愁,希望代替失望,漫天飘洒雪花、糖果、欢呼与音乐,或许,这是“普世欢腾”的另一重含义吧!

 

普世欢腾

下面是Jeff Buckley的Hallelujah 。这感觉,像是一个人的圣诞。

Hallelujah

下面是Charlotte Church的Christmas Song,这声音很有感觉…

 

Christmas Song

 
Chesnusts roasting on an open fire,
Jack Frost nipping at your nose,
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like eskimos.
Church Charlotte
Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright,
Tiny tots with their eyes all a-glow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight.
They know that Santa's on his way,
He's loaded lots of toys and goddies on his sleigh,
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly.
And so I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two,
Although it's been said many times many ways
"Merry Christmas to you"
