I was blessed enough to be able to sing this song in high school and it remains one of my favorites. The entire Ceremony of Carols, from which this is taken, is beautiful and worth listening to.
"Slavery ended in medieval Europe only because the church extended its sacraments to all slaves and then managed to impose a ban on the enslavement of Christians (and of Jews). Within the context of medieval Europe, that prohibition was effectively a rule of universal abolition. "— Rodney Stark

Did I sing this too? I don't remember it. Nice song, though.
I don't remember if you did or not. Were you in choir each year?
