{Monday Morsels} O Holy Night

{Monday Morsels} O Holy Night

Mondays are generally the most hated day of the week.

The weekend is over. It's back to work.

But we think it doesn't have to be that way! That's why we are launching the Monday Morsels series where we post fun fluff posts to brighten your Mondays. This can be anything from recipes to songs to movie or book reviews to funny comics. All bets are off.

To start things off, because it is December and we are preparing for Christmas, we're sharing a beautiful Christmas hymn.

Here are the rich lyrics:

O Holy Night! The stars are brightly shining,
It is the night of the dear Saviour's birth.
Long lay the world in sin and error pining.
Till He appeared and the Spirit felt its worth.
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices,
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.
Fall on your knees! Oh, hear the angel voices!
O night divine, the night when Christ was born;
O night, O Holy Night, O night divine!
O night, O Holy Night, O night divine!

Chains he shall break, for the slave is our brother.
And in his name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
With all our hearts we praise His holy name.
Christ is the Lord! Then ever, ever praise we,
O night, O Holy Night, O night divine!
O night, O Holy Night, O night divine!

Have a lovely week!
