LYRIC FOR SALE

By Jacob Brandon (JDBrand Music)

[Verse 1 – Soft, orchestral beginning]
He left the throne of Heaven high
For straw and stone beneath the sky
No velvet robes, no royal bed
But a manger laid where cattle fed

[Verse 2 – Guitars rise, drums build]
The stars stood still, the angels sang
But we sell plastic gifts and candy canes
We chase the lights, forget the Lamb
Trading holiness for empty hands

[Chorus – Full band + orchestral swells]
This is Christmas — not silver and gold
But mercy born into the cold
The Son of God, the King of grace
Left Heaven’s throne to take my place
So don't bow down to flashing signs
Come kneel before the gift divine
This is Christmas — the holy flame
He came to die… and rose again

[Verse 3 – Strings + clean guitars]
He wore no crown — just thorns and pain
He bore the cross, endured the shame
The child they wrapped in swaddling cloth
Would crush the curse and pay the cost

[Bridge – Spoken Scripture over cinematic build-up]
“And the Word became flesh… and dwelt among us…”
“For unto you is born this day in the city of David…”
…a Savior — who is Christ the Lord.”

[Final Chorus – Soaring, epic, with full choir]
This is Christmas — not comfort and noise
But Heaven's cry above the toys
The Son of Man, the Lamb once slain
Was born to break our every chain
Forget the glitter, forget the store
Come find the King worth living for
This is Christmas — the Truth, the Light
God with us… that holy night
