We sang that carol in church this morning. I never cared for it much, but today for some reason it made me cry. It was probably a combination of knowing that it will be a long time before we are all together again as a family, along with being struck for the first time with how beautiful the idea of angels bending near to earth and the earth listening to their songs in solemn stillness on a clear, wintry midnight is.
