What Child is This?

Музыка

Performed by the Christendom College Choir & Schola Gregoriana
""What Child Is This?" is a popular Christmas carol written in 1865. At the age of twenty-nine, English writer William Chatterton Dix was struck with a sudden near-fatal illness and confined to bedrest for several months, during which he went into a deep depression. Yet out of his near-death experience, Dix wrote many hymns, including "What Child is This?", later set to the traditional English tune "Greensleeves"". -from en.wikipedia.org/wiki/What_Chi...

    After living for nearly 60 Christmases I can not EVER recall hearing this stanza: " Nails and spear shall pierce Him through The cross be born for me, for you Hail, hail, the Word made flesh The Babe, the Son of Mary "

    That's because their singing the original one made in the 19th century. Original versions of a lot of the hymns and prayers are generally a little more "violent and vulgar". People back then weren't as concerned about niceness.

    Because they are seeing the full hymn...not just the first verse. And I think it is even MORE moving with the full story. Why is Jesus important!? This is why.

    For me, Midnight Mass is the most powerful and spiritually moving. This song is always sang at my parish. This song and O Holy Night always make me choke up because they both remind me just how awesome our Lord is. At midnight Mass we not only remember how God became flesh and dwelt among us, but also receive the precious gift of the Eucharist. There are some days like today that I just need that spiritual lift and you gave it to me. Thank you :-)

    Midnight Mass is downright divine. Nothing gets to me like singing my lungs out during the “Gloria in Excelsis Deo” because I feel like I’m singing with the angelic hosts in heaven.

    I've never heard this version before, and I LOVE it! All I've ever heard after each verse is: "This, this is Christ the King, Whom shepherds guard and Angels sing; Haste, haste, to bring Him laud, The Babe, the Son of Mary." This is far more meaningful.

    im ngl i used to think that too, then i began my conversion process and the creepy imagery became so beautiful to me. statues as a reminder of our faith, crucifixes as a reminder of Jesus' never ending love for us, churches decorded so beautifully FOR God, solemn hymns about the life of Jesus and His Mother, etc. Catholicism is an art form, and like any piece of art, it's not for everyone, which is okay!!
