Quote of the Day - X
What Child is this who, laid to rest
On Mary's lap is sleeping?
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet,
While shepherds watch are keeping?
This, this is Christ the King,
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing;
Haste, haste, to bring Him laud,
The Babe, the Son of Mary.

"What Child is This" (frequently known by the name of its melody, "Greensleeves")

Merry Christmas, Russ.

Thanks for all the quotes. For all the complaining about the commercialization of Christmas, the day fills alot of people with feelings of hope and love and good will, and as Martha would say, 'That's a good thing.'

Best wishes for the year ahead.
