About This Song


The wonder of Christ's birth expressed in warmth and beauty. Vivid imagery and a call to return to our First Love. A holiday favorite which was on hold for 2 Michael W. Smith Christmas records. It eventually found its way published as a choral work.

This Christmas

Written by Scott Dotta

THIS CHRISTMAS

Wonder and merriment, kisses of joy
Proclaiming news of a child
Whisper of heaven beheld in this Boy
Freeing the world of its guile

All praises are offered, embrace us merciful Father

This Christmas, let us turn back again
Jesus, rescue the hearts of men
Savior, mighty and gentle hand
Free us, receive us!

Christmas, let us turn back again
Jesus, rescue the hearts of men
Savior, mighty and gently hand
Free us, free us, oh free us.

Downward You fall as celestial snow
Blanketing all of the earth
Scarlet the river of Your mercy’s flow
Calling our lives to Your mirth

All praises are given, embrace us, Father in heaven!

This Christmas, let us turn back again
Jesus, rescue the hearts of men
Savior, mighty and gentle hand
Free us, receive us!

Christmas, let us turn back again
Jesus, rescue the hearts of men
Savior, mighty and gentle hand
Free us, receive us
We’re free! We’re free! We’re free! We’re free!
