Robert Shaw Chamber Singers. From the album, "Songs of Angels, Christmas Hymns & Carols."
Donna Carter, soprano; Victor Ledbetter, baritone
Lyrics:
Masters in this hall, hear ye news today.
Brought from over sea and ever I you pray
Refrain:
Nowell! Nowell! Nowell! Nowell, sing we clear!
Holpen are all folk on Earth, born the Son of God so dear
Nowell! Nowell! Nowell! Nowell, sing we loud
God to-day hath poor folk raised and cast a-down the proud
Going o’er the hills, through the milk-white snow
Heard the ewes bleat while the wind did blow.
Then to Bethlem town, we went two by two
And in a sorry place heard the oxen low.
Therein did we see a sweet and goodly may
And a fair old man, upon the straw she lay.
And a little child on her arm had she,
"Wot ye who this is?" Said the hinds to me.
This is Christ the Lord, Masters be ye glad!
Christmas is come in, and no folk should be sad.

There's a vigor to this carol that fleshes Christmas with the grit of life. Such a masterpiece might be able to convert cold hearts into loving hearts.

Perhaps, in any event, medieval Christmastime (as it was referred to in the day) is brought to life in a truly SPECTACULAR fashion all these centuries after it was first scribed.....

I have to agree. Recently the Mormon choir made a stunning rendition that truly enhances the vigor you mentioned Take a listen! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gL-PmbVlzZiseas.html

@@lydialangfordjoiner765 Although it's belated, I wish you happiness all the year, especially during the holydays of our calendars. I regret having read your correspondence reply four years later. Peace.

The only thing that could improve this is 100 more verses.

NOBODY brings Christmas to a person in quite the fantastic manner that the RSC does.....

THe Robert Shaw Christmas album was in heavy rotation at our house when I was growing up. It's one of those "It's not Christmas until you hear it" recordings.

How come the French are the source of so many English carols? It's always Dansle this, and Dansle that; 'Ding dong merrily on high' is one I remember, and I know there are lots of others. Didn't the French have anything better to do than dance their heads off at Christmastime?

I am begging you. PLEASE PLEASE make a video about your experience with exorcisms and demonic attachments. I am really struggling with the exact same thing that you are. Please. It would really help me.

You are better contacting the Benedictines, they specialise in exorcism. They’ll probably reply to you in about thirteen years, that’s if you haven’t run into those who commercialise and try to improve their advantage via demonic possession in the interim.
