In my mind, this song has a closely-related sibling. There’s another song from the musical Les Miserables that quotes Victor Hugo’s words, “To love another person is to see the face of God.” What both songs have in common is the truth that love is the closest we can get to seeing the face of God in this lifetime. I think of Jesus’ mother, and what it must have been like for her as the first human being to lay eyes on Salvation. That thought makes me breathless!
The lyrics for Day 10 of the Lyrical Christmas Countdown are from the song Mary, Did You Know? written by Mark Lowry.
{During this countdown, I'll be posting my favorite lyrics as a way to engage my soul and slow the bustle of my heart this Advent season.}
