KellyMarie's "Hey! A Child Is Born!" is just the Christmas song we all need this year! The lyrics and melody tend to stick in your mind, and it could easily become your new holiday favorite. With its fun-loving, whimsical vibe inspired by the book "Best Christmas Pageant Ever," the song takes you from a familiar Christmas scene to the true meaning behind Christmas, that life-changing moment of salvation. 

KellyMarie - Hey! A Child Is Born!The song starts with charming verses, setting the scene of this festive season: "Now it's Christmas time again / And I know what to expect / Frosty windows, hints of peppermint / And don't forget the pageant." You can almost smell the peppermint and feel the magic in the air. The song builds up to an energetic chorus that declares, "HEY! Unto you a child is born / Tell everybody… Christ is born today. HEY!" 

KellyMarie's passion for music shines through the entire song, combining her love for music with her deep faith. The song is a celebration of Jesus' birth and the joy He brings to our lives. As the song progresses, it shifts into a reminder that this story isn't history; it's a present reality: "Hearts reflect on what it truly meant / A moment moving through the silence."

This song is so much fun to listen to, you'll probably want to share it with your friends and family. It's such a warm and fun reminder to frequently pause and rejoice in the good news of Christ's birth during the busy holiday season. 

May KellyMarie's enchanting song help to fill your home with the spirit of Christmas. Take a moment, listen. We're confident that you won't regret it!
