Virgil

This is probably my favorite Christmas Carol, and this is a wonderful rendition by Josh Groban.




The third stanza is not always heard. Groban in this rendition skips the second stanza and goes to the third and then returns to repeat the first. I like it. I think the second stanza is the weaker of the three, with the first, of course, being brilliant. You can read all the lyrics here.

Do read the history of the song which was composed in German in 1818.

Merry Christmas to All
