This Day in History Entry #307
December 24th, 2014 by Wordsman
A carol for times that lack light
That can render a twelfth month’s eve bright
Song of peace and of grace
In a gentle babe’s face
Shocking silent those gathered that night
Event: “Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht” (Eng: “Silent Night”) is performed for the first time
Year: 1818

The Christmas album ain’t over ’til the fat lady sings “Silent Night.”
