Merry Christmas

And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying, "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among men with whom He is pleased!"


My mother's favorite carol was In the Bleak Midwinter. You can find the first verse at Bernita's, but mom was fond of the last one.

What can I give him,

poor as I am?

If I were a shepherd,

I would bring a lamb;

if I were a Wise Man,

I would do my part;

yet what I can I give him:

give my heart.

Christina G. Rossetti
