Ah bless!- a real carol! But through the tinsel of Christmas, really it’s tough: “piercing the darkness”. Silent Night, Holy Night
Silent Night

Sleeps the world hid from sight
Mary and Joseph and newly born child
Holy Infant so tender and mild,
Sleeping in heavenly peace
Silent night, Holy night,
Shepherds first, saw the light,
Heard resounding clear and strong,
Piercing the darkness the angel song,
Christ the Redeemer is born,
Silent Night, Holy Night,
Son of God, Oh how bright,
Love is smiling from your face,
The child in the manger who’s bringing God’s grace,
Jesus Lord at your birth
Joseph Mohr
