Noel - Merry Christmas Slideshow

A little slideshow I put together in preperation for the holidays, using assorted Christmas pictures set to "Noel: Christmas Eve, 1913" as performed by John Denver from "John Denver and the Muppets: A Christmas Together". Merry Christmas to all, regardless of religion. ^^

All pictures are (C) their owners/creators. Song is (C) John Denver.

Just so, so beautiful! I've always loved this Christmas anthem by John and wish more Christmas music radio stations would include it in their December broadcasts. DerFreishutz, you've shared such a lovely and poignant video. Thank you

Thank you! I agree, this song needs to be played more often. It's one of my favorite Christmas songs too.

Beautiful song......maybe the best Christmas song most people don't know about.

John Denver is the voice of Christmas music. One of his best. Thanks for posting. Merry Christmas!

Most of the pictures are old Christmas cards. I remember looking at a pack of Christmas cards a few years ago and seeing most of these pictures.

Very nice!

Although not credited, most of the words are taken from a poem, "A Christmas Poem," by Robert Seymour Bridges, published in "The Times" in 1913. If you want to hear a really beautiful setting to music, including the gospel story from St. Luke, you should listen to "In Tera Pax" by Gerald Frinzi. Much better than John Denver.

Marvelous! I never realized how old this song is - the lyrics to this version are from 1913. :) I have never heard any other version but JD's.

My youth group used to sing this at church on Christmas Eve. I haven't heard it for such a long time and cannot find my cassette tape (tells you how long I've had it!). I love this song so much! Thank you for posting it!
