I never knew until this past Christmas that one of my favorite Christmas songs was not only about the birth of Christ, but how Christ enters in to those hearts ready to receive. No one sees it coming and it is indeed a wondrous gift.
How silently, how silently
The wondrous gift is given
So God imparts to human hearts
The blessings of His heaven
No ear may hear His coming
But in this world of sin
Where meek souls will receive him still
The dear Christ enters in
