“Sounds of Christmas,” Friend, Dec. 1984, 39
Sounds of Christmas
Do you hear the sounds of Christmas
In a candle’s flickering light,
In the murmuring and crackling
Of a fireplace burning bright,
In the whisper of a snowflake
Drifting downward in moonlight?
They’re sounds of quiet, sounds of peace—
Echoes of that holy night.
