Oh, Come, Oh, Come, Emmanuel...



...And ransom captive Israel,

That mourns in lonely exile here

Until the Son of God appear.

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel

Shall come to you, O Israel!

I'm loving this time of year - how warm my kitchen is with the ovens burning as I make our holiday treats - the smells of gingerbread and melting chocolate - the delight in my children's eyes as they wait with anticipation for all hallowed Christmas Eve...

So why is it that I'm so melancholy???
