![]() I am enjoying all these “favorites” as suggested on this site. And besides, I think the more serious message we could draw from this song is that if we are to believe what this baby boy eventually taught to all of us … then we would all know that, along with Mary, whenever any of us tenderly cares for a destitute person or vulnerable child we are “kissing the face of God.” Jesus’ own disciples and family just like all the rest of us were still slow to catch on to the way in which this child was to be significant. I heard one person remark to the lyrics … “well, of course Mary knew! She got the angelic announcements before anybody else did!” But I’m not so sure.

On a less serious note since I’m a sucker for vocal harmonies there’s the old chestnut of the “Straight No Chaser” (Acapella group) rendition of Twelve Days of Christmas. It’s a Shaker hymn actually - also a beautiful message. And I’ll have to look up their rendition of “Simple Gifts” as I love that one too. I hadn’t heard this one before but I love their Simple Gifts, which I believe is a quaker song of thanks giving. They are both amazing and blend together so perfectly.
