Thread Name: Origins: I Saw Three Ships.
Subject: RE: Lyr Add: I Saw Three Ships.
Where does the "three ships" motif originate? This tradition does not seem to represent any of the events recorded in the "approved" Gospels in the Bible. Could it have anything to do with heresy, perhaps from an early Christian or medieval Knights Templar or Cathar tradition?

Our Savior Christ and His lady,
On Christmas day, on Christmas day;
Our Savior Christ and His lady,
On Christmas day in the morning.

(I won't venture too far into Da Vinci Code territory.)
