This month, I’m sharing a Christmas song a day and although Christmas Day is now past, I’m finishing up the challenge I started. Today’s song pick is 400 years older than my all-time favorite carol, Silent Night. The mid-15th century English carol goes by different titles: “Thys Endris Night,” “Thys Ender Night” or “The Virgin and Child”. The lyrics tell the conversation between a young baby Jesus and His mother. Only two versions of the song lyrics have made over time and one can be heard in this version by Dan Fogelberg of This Endris Night!
You’ll find This Endris Night on Fogelberg’s 1999 First Christmas Morning album.
Don’t worry about commenting. There’s no worries or fuss or strings attached, simply a moment for you to refresh your body and mind. 
I’ll be here with bells on tomorrow morning with another Christmas song to start your day. Allow yourself time to enjoy the last few days of the holidays without anymore fuss. Reflect on the beauty of the season with your favorite hot beverage and think about the wonderful things to come in the new year. X

Sandee,
Thank you for getting your theme picks to me so quickly, darlin’! I appreciate your visits this month and I hope the music selections each day added to your holiday fun. Music this time of year is magical. I love how music makes me feel for the holidays.
A beautiful song and new to me, Cathy! Thank you for sharing your holiday spirit during the month of December.
I have never heard of this song either. Thank you for sharing it. You have done some beautiful music this month and some research too. Have a wonderful day.
Nicole,
I appreciate you saying so. I know this isn’t your thing but you’ve been so good to pop over for visits. Thanks, dear friend!
Hi, Cathy!
Happy Wild and Almost Wordless Wednesday and S. a. D. Day 29, dear friend!
I never heard of this ancient song that preceded “Silent Night.” Thanks for posting it. As I listened to the words of the song, it gave me goose bumps to realize they were written all those centuries ago. Dan Fogelberg’s recording of it is beautiful. It touches the soul. Thank you very much for introducing me to what might be the oldest song I have ever heard.
I have a doctor appointment this morning and a few more blog stops to make before I leave, so I need to scoot. Have a wonderful day, dear friend Cathy!
Tom,
I know what you mean about “Silent Night” giving you the goosies. It’s such a beautiful song!
