In the midst of our holiday chaos, it is important to pause and reflect on what we are celebrating.

Silent Night

🌲♥️🌲

Silent night, holy night!

All is calm, all is bright

Round yon Virgin, Mother and Child

Holy infant so tender and mild

Sleep in heavenly peace

Sleep in heavenly peace

⭐⭐⭐⭐

Silent night, holy night!

Shepherds quake at the sight

Glories stream from heaven afar

Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia

Christ the Savior is born!

Christ the Savior is born

🎶🎵🎶🎵

Silent night, holy night!

Son of God love’s pure light

Radiant beams from Thy holy face

With dawn of redeeming grace

Jesus Lord, at Thy birth

Jesus Lord, at Thy birth

Joseph Mohr–1833

May you remember the JOY of the very first CHRISTmas as you go about your festivities!
