Music for the Second Sunday of Advent
This morning my church had its "Lessons and Carols" service. It was really lovely, I think! The choir sang five anthems, and we had a brass quintet, a violinist, and an oboist, mostly faculty from my school.
Today's music isn't really related to that, though. It's an anthem which we sang last year at the Union Christmas concert, and I fell in love with it. I was privileged to have a solo in it, but that's not the only reason I like it ;-) The words are an old English carol, and I love the imagery; also, the beautiful setting by John Rutter.

I hope this Sunday has been blessed! (And less full of research papers than mine has been...)
