Your Love Life Link
This song, Circle of Love, is one of many songs where Dolly Parton gives credence to her Christian faith.
I love how Dolly is earthy and authentically lives in this world while still building a strong connection to others without feeling the need to separate from her faith.
It seems this world pressures us to appear like we’re perfect, or that we fit some Christian mold before we can claim faith. Christians often seem to forget that the whole purpose of faith and a Savior who saves us, is that we admit we can’t save ourselves.
These song lyrics speak to the purity of God’s love realized through his Son, Jesus.
Lyrics
Ah, ah, ah
Circle of love, halo of light
When Jesus was born, on that Christmas night
And oh what a night, that Holy night was
When Bethlehem glowed, in the circle of love
God sent His Son, His great gift to us
Salvation for all, He loved us that much
We honour and praise, that gift from above
He holds all of us, in a circle of love
Circle of love, halo of light
When Jesus was born, on that Christmas night
And oh what a night, that Holy night was
When Bethlehem glowed, in a circle of love
Happy birthday to You, we praise and we sing
We celebrate You, we are so glad You came
Happy birthday dear Jesus, let us lift You up
How thankful we are, for all of Your love
So Jesus was born
Wore His crown of thorns
And He gave it all up
To save all of us
Circle of love, halo of light
When Jesus was born (Jesus was born)
On that Christmas night (Christmas night)
And oh, what a night, that Holy night was
When Bethlehem glowed, in a circle of love (ooh)Ah
A circle of love, circle of love
