APPRECIATION, THE GREATEST OP GIFTS.
(Continued from Page 6) And with true love and brotherhood Each other now embrace; This holy tide of Christmas All others doth deface.
When we speak of any Christmas song, it is our custom to refer to it as a "carol." But the word is not ours—we borrow it. Only in England were Christmas ballads originally called carols—and even there it was not until the time of Chaucer that carols were recognized as songs to be sung only at Christmas or Easter.
Originally the carol singing was confined to men who went about on Christmas Eve singing "Wassail" songs or toast to the health of those serenaded. The most famous of these old carols is "God Rest You Merry, Geml^rz?""
America's Best Christmas Carol, "O Little Town of Bethlehem."
O little town of Bethlehem!
How still we see thee lie: Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by.
Yet, in the dark street shineth
The everlasting Light; The hopes and fears of all the years,
Are met in thee, tonight.
How silently, how silently, The wondrous gift is given!
So God imparts to human hearts, The blessings of His Heaven.
No ear may hear His coming, But in this world of sin,
When meek souls will receive Him still, The dear Christ enters in.
Oh holy Child of Bethlehem
Descend to us, we pray, Cafit out our sin and enter in,
and deeply affectionate nature poured forth this beautiful song which glorifies humble little Bethlehem—the village so small and insignificant that no one would believe the great Messiah should be born in such obscurity. "O, Little Town of Bethlehem" tells the story of this greatest of events and so after nearly two thousand years the sentiment of Christmas music remains the same.
"Noel! Noel! Noel! Noel!"
The first Noel, the angels say,
