Mario; after seeing the lyrics, that was the other verse I remembered. That works quite well, doesn't it?Thanks for the suggestion.
Thyme: I am all for lots of different holiday music and the most beautiful Christmas music I remember singing in school, well, all of it was about Christmas! Sacred is sacred. I often found the old-fashioned Victorian and medieval stuff was sometimes more evocative and subtle than the Negro Spirituals; doesn't mean they aren't all worthwhile or beautiful or musically interesting.

That's okay - machines have to burp now and then, too.:-) Duplicate postings deleted.
