I flubbed a hymn request by “thewhiterabbit,” so much for perfection–well, here’s the one you wanted, It Came Upon a Midnight Clear. I opted for Bing Crosby’s performance–beautiful. But all of Christmas is beautiful.

Bing was always good. I like hearing him again, and the song, of course,
beautiful.

“It Came Upon a Midnight Clear” is the only traditional Christmas carol I know of that was written by a non-Christian. It was originally a poem composed by a Unitarian pastor.
Bing had the magical voice.
