Christmas has come, and is now moving out of the way for the New Years!
It was the post Christmas Eve Tradition, this week, which received the most views. May you enjoy a peek into one tradition of our family each Christmas season.
Also this week were :
All is Well (the song may be all about Christmas, at first glance, but it is really a song that we sing as we inhale and exhale, each and every day of our lives)
Seriously, the above is my all time favorite Christmas Eve music. The lyrics speak of the majesty and the mystery of this night. And it is presented in a manner and style that is both lullabye and epic orchestral sound all in one. It can wind you down into sleep, and awaken your soul profoundly all at the same time.
Christmas Eve is just hours away. All of the material (and edible) preparations have been made for the big event. Now it is time to prepare my heart, my mind and my soul, so that I can be fully engaged in the event that this weekend represents.
There is so little that I could add to the message of Christmas, that this piece of music hasn’t already communicated.
All is well all is well Angels and men rejoice For tonight darkness fell Into the dawn of love’s light
Light has come into the world … into the darkness of the world that we know, to light our way.
Sing A-le Sing Alleluia All is well all is well Let there be peace on earth Christ is come go and tell That He is in the manger Sing A-le Sing Alleluia
Go and tell … this is not a ‘Secret Santa’ gift, it is not just for you or me, it is for all, and it is for all who already know of this Christ to share this news … this good news.
All is well all is well Lift up your voice and sing
