Sacred Sunday

Progress has been made on the Christmas front here...the tree is up....Christmas cards are almost done and packages are ready for the post office tomorrow. Still haven't found much Christmas spirit but that's okay - I'll get there. Jan - did you get my text?

We sang this hymn as part of the Christmas program at church today - I could see lots of teary eyes in the congregation. I was more stressed than able to enjoy the program. I played the piano for two musical numbers and didn't practice as much as I should have and made too many mistakes. Hopefully none were too noticeable to the audience.

Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

Silent night, holy night!
Shepherds quake at the sight
Glories stream from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia!
Christ, the Saviour is born
Christ, the Saviour is born

Silent night, holy night
Son of God, love's pure light
Radiant beams from Thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth
