Christmas By Song

O Come All Ye Faithful (Adeste Fideles)

This section takes an individual Christmas song and then provides you with as many different artists performing it for you to enjoy.

We will not be playing all the artists and versions that we have. We don't have the space, but we feel you'll get enough variations to enjoy yourself.

Background Information: The Englishman, John Francis Wade, wrote both the words and the music, Adeste Fideles. The Musical score was first published in 1782 in Samuel Webbe's An Essay on the Church Plain Chant in 1782. John Francis Wade first included it in his own 1751 publication of Cantus Diversi. The lyrics were first published in 1760.

If you hear someone using tissues, it's MoJo. This song has watery effects.

To our British and Aussie allies, MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Children's Christmas Music From Around The World

The music below is safe for all kids! We have Hanukkah, Christmas, and Kwanzaa songs from kids around the world!
All of the music is geared specifically for children.

Warning: This section mentions Jesus quite a lot. Just so no one writes MoJo to tell her that there's too much Jesus and why I chose to do so.

Answer: CAUSE I CAN!

Christmas By Song

Hark! The Herald Angel Sings

Background Info:

Charles Wesley (his brother, John Wesley, founded the Methodist church) is credited with authoring over 3,000 hymns. The lyrics to Hark! The Herald Angels Sing (1739) is one of them. Actually, what he wrote is "Hark how all the welkin rings/Glory to the King of Kings." ("Welkin" means, apparently, "heaven".) A colleague, the Calvinist Whitfield, substituted the familiar opening line over the protests of the author. Thank welkin for Whitfield. Click here for more information.

Christmas By Song

Joy To The World

Background Info: Joy to the World
The words and lyrics of the old Christmas carol 'Joy to the World' were written in 1719 by Isaac Watts (1674-1748). The father of John Watts was a Non-conformist and so extreme were his views that he was imprisoned twice. His father's influence over Isaac was demonstrated when he choose to attend Nonconformist Academy at Stoke Newington in preference to a University. Watts was ordained as a Pastor of an Independent congregation. He wrote many hymns and Carols and was awarded a Doctor of Divinity degree by the the University of Edinburgh in 1728. The music to the carol is by George Frederick Handel (1685-1759).

MoJo Thought:
Have you ever noticed while reading articles that when referring to GOD that many folks decide to write it *G-D*? What is that? Is it supposed to mean that it is less potent and offensive by keeping the *o* from appearing? My suggestion to these folks isn't to use God at all. If you can't add the *o*, don't write it. This is true for those of you that believe or don't.

I wondered about that, too. Plus it looks like parts would bake quicker than others. (I'd have to use a recipe that lets parts of the cake get crisp, like the edges of a brownie. I love crunchy!) ;)

Just as you said, the photos are unbelievable! Your caregiving feats will always be remembered. I dunno why the whole story and pictures makes me misty-eyed, especially when I see one of the Kids enjoying the first plate of some of the most scrumptious food he'll ever eat. I know every bite was yummy!

Thanks for the report!

Sarge we need to make you famous.

You need to publish your chronicles with photo's from Iraq in a book.

You already have a title and subtitle.
