The "Huron Carol" (or "'Twas in the Moon of Wintertime") is Canada's oldest Chrystmas hymn, written in 1643 by Jean de Brébeuf, a Jesuit missionary at Sainte-Marie among the Hurons in Canada.
First written in the Huron language, it was then translated to French, and then finally to English in 1926.
