Subject: RE: Help: Scottish text to Silent Night
"Still the Night" as above with the correction of "rest" for "peace is the way I remember it - can't find my copy of the Church of Scotland Hymnal at the moment. This and many other seasonal hymns and carols came around regularly in the schools and churches I attended while growing up in the fifties/sixties. They did a major revision of the Hymnal towards the end of the seventies, my only memory of that is the addition of several weird happy-clappy items and the loss of some classic favourites - plus the re-arrangement of previously familiar hymns to strange new tunes - including a morris dance tune!
