First seen at All Saints church, Anchorsholme, Blackpool on Christmas morning 2011. So very enjoyable and just loved the words and the muppet characters.

This is a very moving drama. The puppets, incredible voices, and timing go together so well, I am sending the link to as many people to watch the song as I can.

I thank God for the Fairfax Church of Christ team, as well as Mark Brady’s brilliant lyrics. I think every church should show it.

I was very moved and impressed by this video. I have been doing Christian puppetry for some time and have seen lots and this was special. I liked the clever use of multiple viewpoints and the puppetry was well rehearsed and adept. Too many Christian puppet shows go to their audiences without rigorous rehearsal. Well done!

Hello,

I am from Holland and I like this video very much. I think I am gonna play it in church with Christmas but first i need to translate it in Dutch because not everybody in church understands english. That’s why I needed the full text and I hope anyone else will enjoy this lovely video. Merry Christmas to all of you from the Netherlands!!

Is this the real birth?
Is it nativity?
Caught in a census
in the town of his ancestry.

Open your eyes, look up to the skies and see.
He’s just a poor boy foretold by prophecy.
Because the wise men come, wise men go, angels high, shepherds low.
This is how God’s love shows.
It’s a wondrous story to me, to me.

Mary just got the word.
The angel did appear but he told her not to fear.
Mary now it’s just begun; your son is gonna wash our sins away.
Mary ooo (this is how God’s love shows) the God who reigns on high has sent his son to you to die for all.

I see a little silhouette-o of a sheep.
Shepherds watch, shepherds watch over there like the night time.
Angels shine like lightning very, very frightening me!

Glory to God, Peace on Earth, Glory to God, Peace on Earth!
Unto you is born this day, the only way!

I’m just a shepherd nobody loves me.
He’s just a shepherd from a poor family.
Angels said go to the stable and see.

Wise men come, wise men go, will Herod let him live?
Hey Herod – No! he will not him live – better go!
Hey Herod – he will not him live – better go!
Hey Herod – he will not him live!
Better go, will not let him live, better go, will not let him live!
Better go – oh – oh – oh
Go, go, go, go, go!

Oh, Mary Joseph, Mary Joseph!
Mary Joseph better go…to Egypt now
gotta save your son who came
for me, for me, for me!

[music interlude]

So you think that it’s just a tale now days long by?
But this child who was born went to Calvary to die!

Oh, Jesus!
It’s the story of Jesus!
Wash our sins out!
Wash our sins right out of here!

[music interlude]

Oooo, Jesus, Jesus
It’s a wondrous story, anyone can see.
Lets give God the glory!
It’s a wondrous story to me.

This is how God’s love shows!
