Dan Fogelberg Christmas album

OMG! How could I have left out these?!!!!

==============================

The First Christmas Morning
Snowfall
In the Bleak Midwinter

==============================

The hauntingly aerie Snowfall softened me
up for what was about to come next. I had
already been mesmerized by the first few
songs on the album, then, after Snowfall,
Dan began to quietly, slowly, softly sing
"In the Bleak Midwinter." In my half-
century of life, this had never happened.
Twice in the song, I was moved to tears.
If ever the angels wept, overcome with
emotion, this was it.
