NB: This gorgeous collection of illustrated Christmas poetry has been re-published in a single volume containing Kevin Carey’s other collections of Christmas poems, and is available in hardback and paperback, entitled All Hail the Glorious Night.
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.
This book is a perfect stocking-filler, containing over 60 poems that guide us through from Advent to Christmas and Epiphany. Scattered throughout the text are illustrations by Kevin Sheehan.
Darkness alive with candle flame
Lit by the Spirit’s fire;
Our Saviour born in seeming shame
Child of sublime desire.
