    I was takin' a trip on a plane the other day
    Just wishing that I could get out.
    When the man next to me saw the book in my hand
    And asked me what it was about.
    So I settled back in my seat-
    "A best seller, " I said.
    "A history, a mystery in one."
    And then I opened up the book and began to read
    From Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.
    He was born of a virgin one holy night
    In the little town of Bethlehem.
    Angels gathered round him underneath the stars
    Singing praises to the great I Am.
    He walked on the water, healed the lame and made the blind to see again.
    And for the first time here on earth we learned that God could be a friend.
    And though he never ever did a single thing wrong
    The angry crowd chose him. And then he walked down the road
    And died on the cross and that was the end of the beginning.
    "That's not a new book that's a bible, " he said, "and I've heard it all before.
    I've tried religion- its shame and guilt and I don't need it anymore.
    It's superstition, made up tales and just to help the weak to survive."
    "Let me read it again, " I said, "listen closely, 'cause this is gonna change your life.
    He was born of a virgin one holy night
    In the little town of Bethlehem.
    Angels gathered round him underneath the stars
    Singing praises to the great I Am.
    He walked on the water, healed the lame and made the blind to see again.
    And for the first time here on earth we learned that God could be a friend.
    And though he never ever did a single thing wrong
    The angry crowd chose him. And then he walked down the road
    And died on the cross and that was the end of the beginning.
    "The end of the beginning, " he said with a smile.
    "What more could there be? He's dead.
    You said they hung him, put nails in His hands
    And a crown of thorns on His head."
    I said, "I'll read it again but this time there's more,
    And I believe that this is true.
    His death wasn't the end, the beginning of life
    That's completed in you.
    Don't you see he did all this for you!"
    He was born of a virgin one holy night
    In the little town of Bethlehem
    All the angles singing praises to the great I am
    He walked on the water, healed the lame,
    And made the blind to see
    (And for the first time here on earth)
    Did you know that God could be a friend.
    Tho He never ever did a single thing wrong,
    He was the one the crowd chose.
    Then he walked and he died but
    Three days later
    Three days later
    Three days later
    He rose!
    Three days later he rose!
    You see he came, he lived, and he died.
    But that was the end of the beginning.

      I watch this song every Christmas!! I call it now my song as I listen to it at least 10 times on my birthday as well. James sang it with such happiness and such joy that it becomes contagious and you realize just how happy you are in THE LORD!
      Can we hear any other songs with James Phillips soon please?

      Lyrics to End Of The Beginning
      Words & music by David Phelps
      I was taking a trip on a plane the other day, just wishin' that I could get out.
      When the man next to me saw the book in my hand and asked me what it was about.
      So I settled back in my seat. "A best-seller," I said, "a hist'ry and a myst'ry in one."
      Then I opened up the book and began to read from Matthew, Mark, Luke and John...
      He was born of a virgin one holy night in the little town of Bethlehem.
      Angels gathered 'round Him underneath the star singing praises to the great I AM.
      He walked on the water, healed The lame, and made the blind to see again.
      And for the first time here on earth we learned that God could be a friend.
      And though He never, ever did a single thing wrong, the angry crowd chose Him.
      And then He walked down the road and died on the cross and
      that was the end...of the beginning."
      "That's not a new book, that's a Bible," he said, "And I've heard it all before.
      I've tried religion, it's shame and guilt, and I don't need it anymore.
      It's superstition, made-up tales, just to help the weak to survive."
      "Let me read it again," I said, "But listen closely. This is gonna change your life."
      "He was born of a virgin one holy night in the little town of Bethlehem.
      Angels gathered 'round Him underneath the star singing praises to the great I AM.
      He walked on the water, healed the lame, and made the blind to see again.
      And for the first time here on earth we learned that God could be a friend.
      And though He never, ever did a single thing wrong, the angry crowd chose Him. And then He walked down the road and died on the cross and that was the end...of the beginning."
      "The end of the beginning?" he said with a smile. "What more
      could there be? He's dead. You said they hung Him, put nails in
      His hands and a crown of thorns on His head." I said, "I'll read it
      again, but this time there's more.
      And I believe that this is true: His death wasn't the end but the beginning of life that's completed in you.
      Don't you see, He did all this for you..."
      "He was born of a virgin one holy night in the little town of
      Bethlehem. All the angels singing praises to the great I AM.
      He walked on the water, healed the lame, and made the blind to see.
      And for the first time here on earth, did you know that God could be a friend?
      And though He never, ever did a single thing wrong, He was the one the crowd chose.
      And then He walked and He died, but three days later, three days later, three days later...
      He rose! Three days later He rose!
      You see, He came, He lived, and He died, but that was the end of the beginning

      If you are a Christian, then I am ashamed to be one. How would you like someone to compare you to someone else and give you a big fat zero?
