Rejoice!



Our new optional challenge theme this month at Path of Positivity is REJOICE!  

When I hear this word I always think of the Christmas song/carol "O Come, O Come Emmanuel" and this brings very fond memories of singing this lovely hymn.  

You can read more history from Classic FM Discover Music!  

‘O Come, O Come Emmanuel’ was originally written in Latin with a title of ‘Veni, Veni, Emmanuel’ (documents featuring the title and words date back to 1710).

The English translation of the Christmas carol came about in 1851 when priest and scholar John Mason Neale’s version featured in the pages of The Hymnal Noted – a key text in the history of hymns collected by hymnal documenter Thomas Helmore.

Neale also originated the words to ‘Good King Wenceslas’, making him officially one of history’s most festive clergymen.
