Angel's Invitation

I know it's been a long time, but I'm still here. I thought I should post my Christmas song before Christmas is over. I was going to get you an mp3 so you could hear it too (voice only), but I've had some technical trouble so I'm giving up. (Anyone want to host my file so I can link to it here?) But here are the words. I hope you all have a Merry Christmas!!!

UPDATE: Thanks to nerdmom for the offer to host my mp3. I actually was able to do it myself on a subsequent attempt. So here it is. (Sorry it's nothing more than me singing into the PC mike--I figured that's better than nothin'!)

Angel's Invitation

Caught off guard
An angel speaks.
God's mighty power is released.
Baby's born,
God's own son.
This great adventure has begun.

By an angel's invitation
I'm here tonight.
In this dark and dreary stable
Shines God's hope-filled light.
And though I'd never dreamed I'd be here
In all my imagination
How could I refuse
An angel's invitation?

What appeared
As betrayed love
Was salvation from above.
Now months have passed
And here I stand.
How will I raise God's given lamb?

I'm here tonight.
In this dark and dreary stable
Shines God's hope-filled light.
And though I'd never dreamed I'd be here
In all my imagination
How could I refuse
An angel's invitation?

An average night:
Restless sleep,
Keeping watch and counting sheep.
Angels come.
They shout and sing.
Who am I to greet this King?

By an angel's invitation
I'm here tonight.
In this dark and dreary stable
Shines God's hope-filled light.
And though I'd never dreamed I'd be here
In all my imagination
How could I refuse,
Tell me how could I refuse
An angel's invitation?
