The Eve of Christmas...

On our way to church this

Christmas Eve….

The Bells

Hear the sledges with the bells—
Silver Bells!
What a world of merriment their melody foretells!
How they tinkle, tinkle, tinkle,
In the icy air of night!
While the stars that oversprinkle
All the heavens, seem to twinkle
With a crystalline delight;
Keeping time, time, time,
In a sort of Runic rhyme,
To the tintinnabulation that so musically wells
From the bells, bells, bells, bells,
Bells, bells, bells—
From the jingling and the tinkling of the bells.

-Edgar Alan Poe

The elegant and beautiful horse drawn sleighs

of the past.

To church for 

Christmas Eve

we go!

 

Then home to read the 

Christmas Story...

A 

Merry Christmas Eve….

A Song Was Heard at Christmas

A song was heard at Christmas

To wake the midnight sky:

A saviour's birth, and peace on earth,

And praise to God on high.

The angels sang at Christmas

With all the hosts above,

And still we sing the newborn King

His glory and his love.

(Written by Timothy Dudley-Smith)

Love to you all…..
