I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day
|

| |
I heard the bells on Christmas day
Their old familiar carols play,
And wild and sweet the words repeat
Of peace on earth, good will to men.
I thought how, as the day had come,
The belfries of all Christendom
Had rolled along th'unbroken song
Of peace on earth, good will to men.
And in despair I bowed my head:
'There is no peace on earth, ' I said
'For hate is strong, and mocks the song
Of peace on earth, good will to men.'
Then pealed the bells more loud and deep:
'God is not dead, nor doth He sleep;
The wrong shall fail, the right prevail,
With peace on earth, good will to men.'
Till, ringing, singing on its way,
The world revolved from night to day
A voice, a chime, a chant sublime,
Of peace on earth, good will to men.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Two members of my brother’s unit — they were getting ready to go to work and donned some of the fun stuff sent to them by a couple of FReepers! :-)

Holiday traditions...
Bake a birthday cake for Jesus and leave a piece out for Santa (instead of cookies)
New jammies on Christmas eve.
Up early on Christmas day to open presents.
Big meal about mid day.
Snack on leftovers the rest of the day.
Enjoy a beautiful day with those who mean the most to us!

Great thread, Kathy. I guess my only traditions are opening
presents on Christmas day after I have made homemade
biscuits for breakfast. We have a steak dinner instead of
turkey, because MR. LUV has never cared for turkey! He’s a
brat! LOL! Sometimes we watch old Chrismas classics, such
as “White Christmas” before taking naps. :D
Hope everyone has a lovely Christmas with whatever their
tradition is!
