Shout Cast l Launch Music l Live-Radio Net l 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!

Shout Cast l Launch Music l Live-Radio Net l 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.

He left for Iraq in September so it hasn't been as bad this time as it could have been - and most certainly will be the next time. This time he met his unit (already there) in mid-deployment.

Will do. Our soldiers never tire of hearing that they are supported and appreciated - and prayed for. And they most certainly don't understand the anti-war sentiment in this country. :-/

Oh Luv,
That first peek at the one is so exciting.
Raises goose bumps every time. It makes me feel like I am 8 again.
That was the year Poppa came across the walnut tree.
I couldn't believe he climbed it. Just wrapped his big strong thighs and arms around it and up he went.
I was awed. Shoot, I always had to jump for the lowest branch and thread my way up from branch to branch.
He got way up there and then stomped the branches. Now I knew what the burlap sack was for, and no wonder old gloves, never the new pair. They sure were shot.
Thanks for the Hanky Ms. B..
I think this really is the one.
