Music Monday--People Look East

This hymn, People Look East, is the one I like to use to close the Advent Season. With it's anticipatory lyrics about trimming the hearth and setting the table, it makes a fitting transition to Christmas, which could be merely hours or days away depending on the year.

Dymphna's favorite quotes


"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
