Serving The Best Troops and Veterans In The World !! | The Canteen Crew

Posted on 12/24/2015 5:58:29 PM PST by Kathy in Alaska



For Unto You Is Born This Day...
A Savior...Christ The Lord

Merry CHRISTmas, Troops!!

LUKE 2:1-20
King James Version (KJV)

1..And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be taxed.

2..(And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)

3..And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.

4..And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David)

5..To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.

6..And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.

7..And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.

8..And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.

9..And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.

10..And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.

11..For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord.

12..And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.

13..And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,

14..Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.

15..And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.

16..And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger.

17..And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child.

18..And all they that heard it wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds.

19..But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart.

20..And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them.

Polishing up my stuff for next weekend. It’s 1959 to 1988. Once we get to 1989 and beyond, the music doesn’t work for me anymore.

That one is gonna be epic!!...and I agree about the music ending in 1988. It’s all crud after that. Except for the occasional one....

There were a few decent songs in that era, but it all turned sour after ‘88 for me. I guess I was just getting old and crotchety.

SCHUBERT: STRING QUINTET IN C, D. 956

How about a little post-Christmas classical fun?

This is the final movement of the greatest piece of chamber music ever written. On the surface, it's a dance in sonata-rondo format, but under the surface, there are a few demons lurking. The end is like Sissy Spacek reaching up from the grave in the last scene of "Carrie."

SCHUMANN: PIANO QUARTET IN E-FLAT, Op. 47

If Bob Schumann were alive today, he'd be writing movie music. This could come from the soundtrack of any love story.

Schubert didn’t really have a nasty side, but he managed to come up with one of the sneakiest endings in the repertory.

MENDELSSOHN: OCTET IN E-FLAT, Op. 20

Felix was only 16 when he wrote this masterpiece. The third movement, a scherzo, sounds like lemmings heading for the ocean. In the last bars, they disappear over the edge of the cliff.
