An ancient voice...and a chant...that may surprise you

A voice from the unheard voices of the Christians of the Middle East who have been witnessing to faith in the Saviour since His incarnation in their midst. Chanted by Reader Nader Hajjar, Ottawa. Video by kalamation and Fr. Francois Beyrouti.


This is not what you will hear in your church I am sure...but to God's ears...this is the music of the ancient world...

Merry Christmas...no matter what language you speak.

What about Chaldean?



Hayyo Ya Mhuyumne, or Come All Ye Faithful, sung in Chaldean Neo-Aramaic by the Saint Joseph Chaldean Catholic Church Choir. A traditional Christmas hymn. I like the other song better, but some people like this song too.

Latin...



Or a little English...Morman Style..




Are you getting the picture??? Do you see the pattern?...Oh you are so smart. Of course...it is music...the music of every language...seems to find a way to celebrate the birth of a child and the birth of something else...a concept...a hope...a little idea...that transformed us...

Love each other...now that is something to sing about...



Just like our Korean friends here...

What all this must sound to God in his heaven...a cacophony of noise? Or the melody and harmony of his beloved children...getting it right...for the moment...I BELIEVE NO MATTER WHAT...IT IS MUSIC TO HIS EARS...

love,
The lass
