Synopsis
Christmas Carols are one of the most familiar aspects of Christianity, instantly recognisable to church-goers and others alike. Over the years many fine new musical settings have emerged, but the words remain the same. Kevin Carey has been inspired to create a second anthology of new and vibrant lyric poetry that will delight those eager to renew their Christmas Spirit.

Darkness alive with candle flame
Lit by the Spirit’s fire;
Our Saviour born in seeming shame
Child of sublime desire.
