Having been taught as a toddler that Christmas is the holiday that Christians celebrate the birth of Jesus, he asked his mom, "where's the line to see Jesus"?
Somebody who overheard this, -immediately became inspired and jotted words down to a song in just a few minutes.
After putting music to the words, and doing a quick recording at home, the songwriter received a great response from friends.
He sent the song off to Nashville without much response, except for a Christian song writer who suggested adding a bridge at the end of the first chorus.
A singer (Becky Kelly) was ask if she wanted to record the song to see what she could do with it.
It was at the studio the 2nd verse and part of the chorus...were rewritten; with goosebumps and emotions high, they were all hopeful and felt like they had something special......
The demo was recorded in just under 2 hours and sent off again to Nashville... still no response.
Then 2 weeks before Christmas last year, family of the singer decided to do a video to see what we could accomplish on YouTube.
The first day - 3000 hits and it soared from there.
They received e-mails, phone calls, Facebook messages from people all over asking for the music, CD's, iTunes, anything... they had nothin'.
After a couple of meetings with th producer following the amazing response, they got serious.
Getting iTunes set up, a website put together, and loving that thousands upon thousands of Christians have come together... remembering the true meaning of Christmas.
Out of the mouths of babes come profound truths that many adults can not understand.
Hopefully this observation will cause people all over to reflect on the love of Jesus, and that one day we will all stand in line to see Him.
The singer are most thankful to our Heavenly Father to have this chance to share this music with you.
A Blessed ( Merry ) Christmas everyone.....
