It’s not the song, it’s the singer

Luke 2: 13
13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host, praising God and saying,
14 ‘Glory to God in the highest heaven,
and on earth peace among those whom he favours!’
We may not hear angels singing peace on earth and goodwill towards mankind, but each of us in a small way can begin to listen for the ring of truth in each conversation that takes place on Christmas Day and indeed every day. Learning to sing the angels’s songs of peace is no pipe dream.
If we speak of hope and joy and love they become songs that touch the heart. We can see faces and lives transformed. Words can change a conversation. A conversation can change an action. An action can change a life. A life can change a nation. A nation can change the world.
The Ring of Truth
There is a ring of truth in the sky tonight
Hope is on the street
Something in the air feels right
Darkness has somehow lost its place
And faith has found a space
In a human heart
There is a ring of truth round the earth tonight
Peace is on the street
A Word was spoken
In the dark
The struggle has just begun
You too will meet the dawn
In a human heart
There is a ring of truth on the ground tonight
Love is on the street
Hard as iron soft as snow
Footprints mark the cross
Where love will grow
In the human heart
There is a ring of truth in your voice tonight
Joy is on the street
Tears will trickle into song
In praise of Christmas morn
God is born
With a human heart
There is a truth that rings in heaven tonight
God is on the street
Angels can’t believe the plan
That God is in a man
The Spirit of the Father, Son
Beating in a human heart
