Chris Tomlin is celebrating the miracle of life this Christmas, in the birth of the Saviour and his third daughter.
Tomlin and his wife, Lauren, started off the year with two daughters ages 6 and 9-years-old. While they were very content with their daughters, God is surprising them with one more, according to Tomlin.
He posted his excitement on social media with the news of a new baby on July 18 this year.
Lauren is due 11 days before Christmas, and this has the Tomlin family connecting their new baby alongside the arrival of baby Jesus centuries earlier.
This then inspired Tomlin's latest Christmas song 'Miracle of Love' which was released on October 9, 2020.
"I started thinking about how I could write a lyric that talks about my baby being born at Christmas and then talks about 'the baby,' Jesus, being born at Christmas and that each line would match and would have a double meaning," says Tomlin in an exclusive interview with People Magazine.
While Tomlin, 48-years-old, was initially very shocked by the surprise pregnancy, he quickly became excited for a new little girl in his life.
"It's an incredible privilege to be a dad with these girls, and especially girls. I feel like there's a special thing that a dad has with girls, and so I'm really grateful," Tomlin says in his interview with the magazine.
His newest Christmas EP is called Miracle of Love: Christmas Songs of Worship and has seven tracks on it.
