A legacy of love
a legacy of light
and hope. Promise fulfilled
How it came upon a
midnight clear with
angelic voices heard on high
singing Gloria in excelsis Deo.
All is calm, all is bright
round yon Virgin, mother
and child…
O holy night, the stars
are brightly shining
O night divine
Peace on earth, and mercy mild
God and sinner reconciled
Sing all ye citizens of
heaven above;
Joy to the world
the bread of life has come
For he will be
named wonderful counselor,
Mighty God, everlasting father,
Prince of peace
( with recognition to the beautiful, traditional
Christmas songs; and Isaiah 9:6)
Gaudete,gaudete Christus
est natus Ex Maria
virgine, gaudete!
