>*Mortal! We Spirits of Christmas do not live only one day of our year. We live the whole three-hundred and sixty-five. So is it true of the Child born in Bethlehem. He does not live in men's hearts one day of the year, but in all days of the year. You have chosen not to seek Him in your heart. Therefore, you will come with me and seek Him in the hearts of men of good will.*
Francis De Wolff, A Christmas Carol (1951)

Merry Christmas Eve. I have learned this counter-melody to Silent Night. It is so beautiful, I want to share it with everyone who is searching for the spirit of love that burns in our hearts. May His light illuminate our lives.
Best version ever is by the St Olaf choir. But can't seem to find it, so here's another.

Some country this morning for the season. I need to be careful about this; some of these songs will have you reaching for the comfort and tearing up pretty bad, pretty depressing. Not this one, though.

What a remembrance to share! Thank you so much. Have you seen John Boorman's Hope and Glory?
The music is fantastic, especially the Kyiv Chamber Choir. The bass in the piece teared me up. So beautiful.
h5. Watch the wick on your lamp; keep your light shining. .
