Zechariah 9:9-10 (New Living Translation)
Zion’s Coming King
9 Rejoice, O people of Zion![a]
Shout in triumph, O people of Jerusalem!
Look, your king is coming to you.
He is righteous and victorious,[b]
yet he is humble, riding on a donkey—
riding on a donkey’s colt.
10 I will remove the battle chariots from Israel[c]
and the warhorses from Jerusalem.
I will destroy all the weapons used in battle,
and your king will bring peace to the nations.
His realm will stretch from sea to sea
and from the Euphrates River[d] to the ends of the earth.[e]

Christmas Music - When the River Meets the Sea
Since I had all of about 125 hits in December last year, I thought I would repost about my fondness for John Denver & The Muppets - A Christmas Together - especially "When the River Meets the Sea." I still don't know what makes me like this song so much, but I do.

Christmas Music - 12 Days by Straight No Chaser
This video from 1998 predates some of the current A cappella craze and these guys have a lot of fun with a Christmas remix. I really like the "Carol of the Bells" section.

Christmas Music
If I was limited to only one Christmas album, it would be "A Christmas Together" with John Denver and the Muppets.
And I can't really explain it, but "When the River meets the Sea" is one of my favorites. I guess it has a positive message about the afterlife, but it is about dying. There must be something about that theme that resonates with me, since I like "It is well with my Soul."
