Wilmette Wishes You a Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!

My noel greeting to you: click here

Good Christian men, rejoice with heart and soul, and voice;
Give ye heed to what we say: News! News! Jesus Christ is born today;
Ox and ass before Him bow; and He is in the manger now.
Christ is born today! Christ is born today!

Good Christian men, rejoice, with heart and soul and voice;
Now ye hear of endless bliss: Joy! Joy! Jesus Christ was born for this!
He has opened the heavenly door, and man is blest forevermore.
Christ was born for this! Christ was born for this!

Good Christian men, rejoice, with heart and soul and voice;
Now ye need not fear the grave: Peace! Peace! Jesus Christ was born to save!
Calls you one and calls you all, to gain His everlasting hall.
Christ was born to save! Christ was born to save!

"The birth of Christ helps us to be aware of what human life is worth, the value of every human life, from his first moment to his natural decline. In this world, where Jesus wanted to be the travelling companion for each of us, no one is an outsider. Jesus asks us all to extend a welcome to all."
