Flyleaf - The Christmas Song [Lyrics]

[Sexipop101]

I absolutely love this song. I am not christian, but I used to love youth group and I heard this song and now I am HOOKED. Love Flyleaf!!

[ZzzcheesterzzZ]

i love this song! its not tecniquely christmas but idc!!! its always christmas when i think of Gods love, and how Jesus died for me <3

[0980ilikepie]

People, can you PLEASE not debate religion on people videos on this song? yes im Christian, yes this is a song about religion, but not everyone needs to go into a hissy fit because of it. Calm the fuck down people

[BookdotJeffrey]

@0980ilikepie No offense, but if you're a christian, why do you use the "f" word, I mean this in the most sincerely friendly way, but it's really not a good testimony. Sorry.

[Sexipop101]

@0980ilikepie I don't think you are a true Christian if you throw the "f" bomb around.

[Kayplops]

Love this song!x

[8chariotrider]

Psalm 47:7 enjoins us: "For God is the King of all the earth: SING YE PRAISES WITH UNDERSTANDING" (emphasis mine) -- so my concern is legitimate. Somebody please point Ms.Mosley this way for me so I can get the explanation directly from her. I'd be grateful.

[8chariotrider]

The"goodness"that's "bound by Satan" may also be "torn,"but "with this baby's precious brow ready for thorns"must be separated from that foregoing thought by some punctuation mark that would establish the hard distinction; or at least, say, a dash prior "with" but with "with" meaning rather "while," thus indicating the ultimate defeat of Satan that Jesus would accomplish by His sacrifice&arising.Ms.Mosely,he­lp me understand,please? Thanks in advance. (Part 4 of 4)

[8chariotrider]

....[Jesus']precious brow"("ready for thorns" would be a parenthetical offering of an extra idea calling to mind His then-future suffering & fatal torture)was responsible for tearing "the goodness"!Jesus aiding the will of Satan?Unimaginable!Actually,bl­asphemous!I cannot think Ms.Mosley intended such.Nor the maker of the video who likely only wrote what was heard or thought heard.The lyrics sounds like what I'm hearing,too,though.But there must be a redeeming explanation.4th posting a must!

[8chariotrider]

What does the "it" refer back to? To "goodness"? Or "bound"? Unlikely the latter, wouldn't you say? Otherwise the word ordering would need be something like, say, "Satan's binding of goodness, it has been torn," meaning the "binding" has been "torn." But,OK, if left as it is and "goodness" is what "it" refers back to, then a punctuation mark of a full-stop or at least a semi-colon is necessary -- otherwise the terminal phrasing starting from "with" suggests -alas!- the "baby....(Part 2 of 3)

[8chariotrider]

From I came upon this song today, I have probably listened to and viewed it at least 50 times, as I'm wont to do with a song I truly like. But can anyone tell me if the lyrics "The goodness bound by Satan, it has been torn with this baby's precious brow ready for thorns" is indeed the actual lyrics and if the punctuation is according to the original? Either way, it is problematic as it stands as it is approached to be interpreted. Let me explain. (Part 1 of 3)

[SammySmurfx3]

Flyleaf saved my life :3 .. All my life I was shown hritianity was harsh and cruel, it bound you to follow what the Pastor and Bible says :3 ... i finally found how to enjoy it and follow God and live by Him my own way..

[Nerfharris457]

Itunes?! Cmon! Flyleaf is awesome and they should def put this on itunes

[CarnalLove01]

I'm Atheist, and this is still one of my favorite songs!

[LeviNRatbu]

did anyone recognize that her voice sounds like shakira....

[trumpetcat8]

I love the song but I just wanted to mention that there are a few grammar mistakes in your lyrics that kind of bugged me. "Receives" and "into this world." Just trying to be helpful, I don't mean to offend! Love the tune though! Keep it up!

[devilownsmenot500]

[OhWorldOfWonder]

I never knew she was religious...

0x0

[DustyKiss76]

@OhWorldOfWonder really? Every song she writes pretty much is about God... Appart from Im sorry that I know of.

[OhWorldOfWonder]

@DustyKiss76 Hmn...I guess I just never noticed before.

[KingOfDarkness1996]

She can't sing for nothing, I mean when she sings it sounds like her mouth is fulled with muffins or something, She's hot though so who cares? I DO Fuck all ya'll

[jheil13]

@KingOfDarkness1996 Suck my nine inch imaginary cock(: You ass banging gutter slut.

[DustyKiss76]

@KingOfDarkness1996 its an innocent voice, but your probably not used to that.

[KingOfDarkness1996]

@DustyKiss76 Dusty kiss..What the fuck does that name suppost to mean? Dusty kiss alright let me take a insault from a guy named dusty kiss. Kiss my fucking dusty ass you retard.

[DustyKiss76]

@KingOfDarkness1996 First off, Im not a guy. Second Retard is the name used for someone mentally challenged, which clearly I am not, it wasnt an insult, you took it wrong you probably arent used to an innocent voice - A voice singing words without anger and hatred t'ward anyone. If I wish to, I will stick up for a band that I beleive to be beautiful and inspired. Dont get rude when you dont understand kingofjackshit.

[YELLOWCOWDASH]

@DustyKiss76 haha you told him nice lol

[megasis13]

@KingOfDarkness1996 u dont,like the way she sings then fuck off and dont even bother liking the band anymore i like the way she sings its beautiiful ur just some low-life loser that has nothing better to do then tear people down cuz it gives u enjoyment but i dont like it so bak off and leave her alone

[MarieManiaful]

i'm audtioning to sing this song for the christmas concert at my school :DDD

[KingOfDarkness1996]

I like the way she talks :)

[blackmasks90]

her voice is unbeliveable ;) i ilke this song :)

[emoziz1107]

"So He can hang upon the cross and we can take His life So we can live as sinners and He can pay the price"

That is so true.

[bubbles17935]

love it!

[faceboobs]

amazing song

[ParamoreLvrRIOT]

i think i might sing this song in church come christmas time.

[XcharcoalXashesX]

Awesome. I wanted to learn it in choir and sing it at the Christmas Concert - I thought it would sound cool. Apparently the choir leader didn't :[

[TonyChopperPrime]

@XcharcoalXashesX It was probably the lyrics where it talks about living a perfect life and living as sinners. It kind of sounds bitter to people who would take the lyrics literally and not read into them.

[megane617]

@XcharcoalXashesX haha well my choir directer loved the idea of me singing it for our choir concert :]

[citrusloops]

@ParamoreLvrRIOT me too (: and luvvv ur username lol
