The last verse of another favorite, "Sleep Holy Babe," runs as follows:<br /><br />Sleep, holy Babe,<br />O take Thy brief repose:<br />Too quickly shall Thy slumber break,<br />And Thou to lengthened pains awake<br />That death alone shall close.<br /><br />Some of my favorite Christmas holy cards are those that show Our Lord as an infant, holding a crown of thorns in His little hands. You sure seem to be right, there used to be a more recognized connection between the Incarnation and the Passion.<br /><br />Best wishes and Merry Christmas to all the Church Ladies!Jerome Vincentnoreply@blogger.com
