Incarnation is a collection of four Christmas songs recorded in December 2020, the first holiday season after the recent passing of Christina Eltrevoog’s father, Jim Eltrevoog. The songs chosen reflect the bittersweet duality of life: in death, remembering life; and in life, remembering death. Recorded simply just with voice and electric guitar, just outside of her hometown, at Studio Eve by engineer Alby Odum.
Includes unlimited streaming of Incarnation
via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics
O holy night! The stars are brightly shining
It is the night of our dear Savior's birth
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth
A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn
Fall on your knees, O hear the angel voices
O night divine! O night when Christ was born!
O night divine! O night! O night divine!
Led by the light of faith serenely beaming
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming
Here came the Wise Men from Orient land
The King of kings lay thus in lowly manger
In all our trials born to be our friend
He knows our need, to our weakness is no stranger
Behold your King! Before Him lowly bend
Behold your King! Before Him lowly bend
Truly He taught us to love one another
His law is love and His gospel is peace
Chains He shall break, for the slave is our brother
And in His name all oppression shall cease
Sweet hymns of joy, in grateful chorus raise we
Let all within us praise His holy name
Christ is the Lord, O praise His name forever!
His power and glory evermore proclaim!
His power and glory evermore proclaim!
Fall on your knees, O hear the angel voices
O night divine! O night when Christ was born!
O night, O holy night! O night divine!
