We sang the Huron Carol this morning. The imagery is wonderful for our northern Wisconsin setting, where it is easier at this time of the year to imagine wandering hunters than shepherds out in fields. The children's message was going to be centered around illustrations that go with the song. Since there were no children younger than 16 in church today, there will have to be another time and place to share this song.
‘Twas in the moon of wintertime, when all the birds had fled,
That God the Lord of all the earth sent angel choirs instead;
Before their light the stars grew dim,
and wandering hunters heard the hymn:
Jesus, your king is born!
Jesus is born!
In excelsis Gloria!
