Ron Fisher is the Latest Winner
The contest continues. We have two winners so far. Also note, these aren't strictly Christmas carols--they can be any Christmas song. Here's clue #3:
- While the writer of this song is unknown, songologists are almost certain this writer had professional knowledge of the Bible and a great gift for taking Scripture and reshaping it into verse
- Due to the language in the chorus, it is also surmised that a monk or priest from the Catholic church was likely responsible for the writing
- The melody used in this song never strays more than one octave and the verse covers only six notes. This simplicity seems to tie the melody to early chants used by monks
- Though the tune is simple, few Christmas songs fully describe the joy that the world felt when a Savior was born in Bethlehem. The lyrics don't just ask the singer to lift up his eyes and heart in wonder, they demand it
Good luck!
