Matthew 2:13 "And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him." Matthew 2:16 "Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men, was exceeding wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had diligently enquired of the wise men." ---------------------------------- This is not your normal carol, it tells a different night, many nights. Of how Joseph fled with Mary and Jesus into Egypt. Hunted they hid. I imaging Mary sang this as a lullaby to comfort her son as he slept. It is a dramatic reimagining of the classic carol and I hope it strikes your heart in a new and powerful way.

Round yon Virgin, Mother and Child, Holy Infant so tender and mild, Sleep in heavenly peace. Sleep in heavenly peace. Silent night, holy night, Son of God, love's pure light. Radiant beams from Thy holy face, With the dawn of redeeming grace, Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth. Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth. Holy Infant so tender and mild, Holy Infant so tender and mild, Sleep in heavenly peace. Sleep in heavenly peace...
