After a rather bleak fall, due to a situation that arose at work, I am off on leave for at least a month. My self esteem took a bit of a kicking, but I found out that I was not the only worker targetted. That doesn't make what happened any easier, but it helps in the healing process.
We are now entering the Yuletide season, and I am feeling the hope, peace, love, and joy of this magical time of year. My choir will be performing my original cantata, Hope for Peace, with guest soloists and there will be Christmas Eve and Christmas Morning services. I wrote this song last year for Christmas Eve.

Christmas Light
A winter's night in deep December
We call it Christmas Eve
A night we've chosen to remember
Fulfilling of prophecy
They said a Saviour would be born
And now we call it Christmas Morn
Choosing the darkness of the winter
To celebrate new life
Chasing the shadows of December
To bring us Christmas light
See how the stars are twinkling in
The clear and cloudless sky
Shine on our earthly journeys to
Keep the light of hope alive
And as our hearts are warmed this night
We hold the key to love most bright
Choosing the darkness of the winter
To celebrate new life
Chasing the shadows of December
To bring us Christmas light
The snow is falling softly over
The dark and barren earth
The shadows of a bleak midwinter
Turn into hope of new birth
And as we join our hearts in faith
There will be hope on Christmas Day
Choosing the darkness of the winter
To celebrate new life
Chasing the shadows of December
To bring us Christmas light
