Look at that–no Christmas hymn requests today, no carol contest entries. Guess I’d better provide one myself.
This is the English melody that goes with Away in a Manger, sung here by the King’s College Choir at Cambridge. Same hymn, different tune. Just as beautiful either way.
It’s a little late to start posting entries now, but tomorrow is another day.
Proclaim the joy of Christmas–and its truth.
I love the verse that says “and love me, I pray.”
Here’s a request for tomorrow, my 71st birthday: “Magnificat” by Keith & Kristen Getty. I think few on this blog have ever heard it before – definitely worth a listen.
Happy birthday, Dave! First thing tomorrow, your request.
I hope you’ve got a nice cake lined up.
We will be celebrating at the Red Lobster, and I have a pound of Sees candy to share for dessert.
A happy birthday, and a blessed coming year to you.
I like this hymn!
