Love this! "O, Holy Night" is my it's not Christmas until I hear this song. I knew it was written by an atheist but not the full story. I also shared it with my daughter, including the radio broadcast recreation. We both thought it was very interesting! And now I also found and saved a copy of the original poem, in both French and English. Now to go listen to and sing along with some Christmas carols!🎄🌟
It is amazing! And shows how sometimes The Truth comes from surprising sources. I grew up listening to the Tennessee Ernie Ford version and every Christmas Eve the choir director at our church sang it as a soprano solo. It was so beautiful 😍 Definitely some fond memories with this carol.
My absolute favourite, such powerful words - brings me to tears every time I sing it!
I could see both you and me loving it when we sang it at the carol service this weekend
