MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE !!!!!
I thought that I should say this now, as I now definitely won't have time to post again before Christmas !! I hope that everyone has a really lovely day, and do also be sure to take a moment at some point during the day to reflect on what Christmas is really all about (I know I will be) - more than just the wrapping paper. (See previous post entitled "firm Foundations")
I shall leave you with a few words about Christmas which are not written by me. I know they're words we sometimes sing 'off-pat' at this time of the year, especially when like me you've been used to singing/playing in a couple of carol services each year; but last sunday at our church carol service I was just really struck by them, and what the song really means ! Enjoy.
"Hark, the herald angels sing: "Glory to the new born king".
Peace on earth and mercy mild; God and sinners reconciled !
Joyful all you nations rise; Join the triumph of the skies.
With the angelic host, proclaim: "Christ is born in Bethlehem".
Hark, the herald angels sing: "Glory to the new born king" !! "
Traditional carol, punctuation added by me.
