🎄⚔️ “THE SIEGE OF LIGHT”
A jingly, Scripture-soaked reminder that Christmas is not retreating — it’s advancing.
Every December 27th the same thing happens:
The world yawns, packs up the manger, drags a dry tree to the curb, and acts like Christmas was a 24-hour flash sale.
But the Church?
🚫 Not done.
🚫 Not tired.
🚫 Not even halfway through.
Today is Day Three of Christmas, the Feast of St. John the Beloved — the apostle who didn’t just describe the Incarnation, but declared it a cosmic invasion of Light:
“The light shines in the darkness,
and the darkness has not overcome it.” — John 1:5
That’s not cozy sentimentality.
That’s military language.
The Gospel — Evangelium (eh-vahn-JEL-ee-um) — is literally a royal battle proclamation:
“Good news: the King has won. Submit joyfully.”
So this track leans in:
🎖️ Twelve Days of Christmas as a siege
🌟 Christ the true Light breaching the walls
🔥 John the Beloved shouting air support from the parapets
🎄 Culture tapping out on January 1
🐪 Magi (MAY-jai) not even close to arriving yet
✨ And the Church still singing like an army at reveille
This is Christmas as it really is:
A kingdom taking ground — quietly, joyfully, irresistibly.
🎶 “The Siege of Light” — Out Now
A triumphant, slightly snarky carol for Catholics who refuse to surrender Christmas early.
