IT, CAME UPON THE
MIDNIGHT CLEAR
It came, upon the midnight
clear,
That glorious song Of old,
From angels bending 'near the
earth
To touch their harps of gold;
"Peace on earth, good will to
-teen,
From heaven's all - gracious
King!"
The world in solemn stillness
lay
To hear the angels sing.
Still through the cloven skies
they come
With peaceful. wings unfurled;
And still their heavenly music
floats
O'erall the weary Wily ,�
Above its sad and
They bend on hovering wing.
And ever o'er its Babel sounds
The blessed angels sing.
JOY TO THE WORLD!
Joy to the world! the Lord is
come;
Let earth receive her King;
Let every heart prepare Him
room—
And heav'n and nature sing.
Joy to the world! the Saviour
reigns;.
Let men their songs employ;
While fields and floods, rocks,
hills and plains—
Repeat the sounding joy.
GOD REST YOU, MERRY'
GENTLEMEN
God rest you merry, gentlemen,
Let nothing you dismay,
Remember Christ our Saviour
Was born on Christmas day,
To save us all from Satan's
pow'r
When we were gone astray!
O tidings of comfort and joy.
In Bethlehem, in' Jewry,
This blessed Babe was born,
And laid within a manager,
Upon this blessed morn;
To which His Mother Mary
Did nothing take in scorn.
O tidings of comfort and joy.

SILENT NIGHT
Silent night, Holy night!
AU is calm, all is bright,
'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.
Silent night, Holy night!
Shepherds• quake at the sight,
Glories stream from heaven
afar,
Heav'nly hosts sing Alleluia,
Christ, the Saviour, is born,
Christ, the Saviour, is born.
THE FIRST NOWELL
The first Nowell the angel did
say,
Was tocertain poor shepherds
in fields as they lay;
In fields where they lay keep-
ing their sheep,
On a cold Winter's night that
was so deep.
Nowell, nowell, nowell, nowell!
Born is the King of Israel.
They looked up and saw a star
Shining in the east, beyond
them afar,
And to the earth it gave great
light,
And so it continued both day
and night.
Nowell, nowell, nowell, nowell!
Born is the King of Israel.
This star, drew nigh to the
northwest,
O'er Bethlehem it took its rest,
And there it did both stop and
stay
Right over the place where
Jesus lay.
Nowell, nowell, nowell, nowell!
Born is the King of Israel.

GOOD KING WENCESLAS
Good King Wenceslas look'd
out
On the Feast of Stephen,
When the snow lay round about
Deep, and crisp, and even:
Brightly shone the moon that
night,
Though the frost was cruel,
When a poor man came in
sight,
Gath'ring Winter fuel.
"Hither, page, and stand by me,
If thou know'st it, telling,
Yonder peasant, who is he?
Where and what his dwelling?"
"Sire, he lives a good league
hence,
Underneath the mountain;
Right against the forest fence,
By Saint Agnes' fountain."
AWAY IN TH EMANGER
A'Vay in the manger,
No crib for His bed,
The little Lord Jesus
Laid down His sweet head.
The stars in the bright sky
Looked down where He lay,
The little Lord Jesus
Asleep in the hay.
The cattle are lowing,
The Baby awakes,
But little Lord Jesus
No crying He makes.
I love Thee, Lord Jesus;
Look down from the sky,
And stay by my cradle
'Til morning is nigh.
Is There a Santa Claus?
Virginia, your little friends are wrong.
They have been affected by the scepticism of a sceptical age.
They do not believe except they see.
They think that nothing can be which is not comprehensible
by their little minds.
All minds, Virginia, whether they be men's or children's,
are little.
In this great universe of ours, man is a mere insect an ant,
in his intellest, as compared with the boundless worlds
about him, as measured by the intelligence capable of
grasping the whole of truth and knowledge.
Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus.
He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion
exist, and you know that they abound and give to your
life its highest beauty and joy.
Alas! how dreary would be the world if there were no Santa
Claus!
It would be as dreary as if there were no Virginias.
There would be no childlike faith then, no poetry, no ro-
mance to make tolerable this existence.
We should have no enjoyment, excp,t in sense and sight.
'The eternal light with which childhood fills the world would
- be extinguished.
Not believe in Santa Claus!
You might as well not believe in fairies!
You might get your papa to hire men to watch in all the
chimneys on Christmas Eve to catch Santa Claus, but
even if they did not see Santa Claus coming down, what
would that prove?
Nobody sees Santa Claus, but that is no sign that there is no
Santa Claus.
The most real things in theworld are those that neither
children nor .men can see.
Did you ever see fairies dancing on the lawn?
Of course not, but that's no proof that they are not there.
Nobody can conceive or imagine all the wonders that are
unseen and unseeable in the world.
You tear apart the baby's rattle and see what makes the
noise inside, but theta is a veil covering the unseen
world which not the strongest man, nor even the united
strength of all the strongest men that ever lived, could
tear apart.
Only faith, fancy, poetry, love, romance, can push aside
that curtain, and vie wand picture the si,pernal beauty
and glory beyond.
Is it all real?
Ah, Virginia, in all this world there is nothing else real and
abiding.
No Santa Claus!
Thank God! he lives, and he lives forever.
A thousand years from now, Virginia nay, ten times ten
thousand years from now, he will continue to make
glad the heart of childhood.

This editroial, which has justly become timeless, was
written in the New York Sun in 1897 by Francis Pharcellus
Church in answer to a letter from a little eight-year-old girl
named Virginia O'Hanlon, who had been told by some of her
friends that there was no Santa Claus.
