Well, we couldn’t let Christmas go by without posting Silent Night, could we? Thanks, Phoebe, for requesting it.
Here we have it from the choir at Kings College, Cambridge.

Special Request, ‘Once in Royal David’s City’
We announced a Christmas Carol Contest yesterday, to begin the day after Thanksgiving; but Marge was quick off the mark with a request for this, Once in Royal David’s City. And there’s no such thing as a bad time for a Christmas hymn!
This rendition by the choir and congregation at King’s College Chapel, Cambridge, moves me close to tears. Nothing can be that beautiful, and not be true. And the most beautiful truth of all is Jesus Christ, Our Lord.
Gimme Some Hymns!
Look, I’ve just given you the King’s College, Cambridge, Choir singing Jesus Christ is Risen Today. All I ask in return is a few hymn requests for tomorrow. I’ll be stuck at the eye doctor’s all morning and will come home too dilated to see what I’m doing. But if I can get a hymn or two posted before I go, that would be a little something.
As for today–well, there are a few other dreary rotten news stories I could cover: for instance, America is about to get an official, government-authorized monument to Organized Sodomy. And a few others. But I don’t feel like covering them! It’s raining and raining and raining here in New Jersey and there’s only so much bad news I can take today.
So, if you don’t mind, I’ll come up with some cat video or something like that–maybe even a little more writing, if I get to feeling frisky.
