YoungMormonRoyalist Posted December 7, 2008 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 I always liked 'God Rest ye Marry Gentlemen.' Maybe it's cus our particular area has a lot of quasi-Scottish/Northern English culture to it, and I was raised around my Scottish grandma (To the point where I still retain a slight scottish inflection...)...but it always reminds me of something like Oliver Twist.

Truegrits Posted December 7, 2008 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 And in despair I bowed my head:"There is no peace on earth," I said,"For hate is strong and mocks the songOf peace on earth, good will to men."(Iggy, this is one of my most favorite Christmas songs.)

ADoyle90815 Posted December 7, 2008 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 I love The Gloucestershire Wassail, which goes back to the middle ages. Chorus: "Wassail, wassail all over the town Our toast it is white and our ale it is brown Our bowl it is made of the white maple tree With our wassailing bowl, we'll drink to thee."

Iggy Posted December 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 (SIGH. . ) What I was trying to do was have you all follow me with the words of the carol. Not just make comments on them.I will start again: HE SENT HIS SONHow could the Father tell the world of love and tenderness? - - -here is where you can find it. Topics - LDS Church Music Find Christmas and then He Sent His Son. Listen to it, and add the next words of the carol. Once the carol is finished, then add a new carol. They do not have to be from the church Hymn book, but could they PLEASE not be crude like the one Book posted. Book can start a new thread of Fractured Christmas Carols- I will gladly post a few that I know. Also, if you do not like a particular carol, please keep your negative comments to yourself and wait to post until there is a carol you do like. Thank you.True - there are very very few carols that I do not like. I, naturally, started with the one that touches me the most. I have felt most of the emotions stated in this carol. For 15 years I battled despair, depression and sorrow during the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. At times I was just a hairs breath away from suicide. The carols got me through that hell. My family would send me boxes of tapes of carols that they copied. I would play them nearly 24/7. At times I would be sitting on the floor in tears listening to them. I rejoice in the spirit of Christmas Carols, that is why I started this thread. To share my love of Christmas Carols. I really love the ones from the Childrens Song Book. To hear the children singing them, is to me what Heavenly Angels must sound like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TheLutheran Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 Christ the Savior is born. Christ the Savior is born. (This is, by far, the best I've ever sounded!!) Ever heard of the Lutheran Tabernacle Choir? Nope? . . . that's what I thought. There's a reason for that!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
