Merry Christmas

If anyone has followed the events in New York City, you can imagine what turmoil is raging here. Well, you're imagining correct.  This city is being torn in half.  Of course I'm angry too, but I won't get into the politics here.  What we need is calm, the calm of our Lord's birth.

My favorite Christmas song.  I like the way Ann Murray sings it.   She's underrated as far as I can tell.  Plus she sings that third stanza, which is so beautiful, but so often left out.





This city can sure use some heavenly peace right now.

  1. Anne Murray sure does a great job of that song but truth be known and like you said, "She's underrated"... believe it or not, over 44 years ago, she had to choose between continuing as a teacher and/or her singing career... Long story short, sinner vic needed a song for his wedding and so she sang...

    1. 44 years?! Wow, she must be heroic. :-P Seriously, congratulations. That's great and a wonderful song to have for your wedding. Yikes, I've forgotten what my wedding song was.
