This is What it Looked Like in Maine on Christmas, Where I, Nancy lived Much of my Life. I'm Now Very Happy to be in this 70 degree weather of Southern NM December, 2005
Good
evening on this joyous Christmas Eve. On behalf of myself Bob T, Nancy Tate,
Mike Quinsey, our dog Toshiro and all of the family of the Tree
of the Golden Light we want to express our thanks for your support of our
work. The coming New Year holds great promise and we wish for each of you a new
year filled with peace, prosperity and joy.
Toshiro Loves this Weather Too!
And
now a message from Nancy.
Hi Everyone,
How
have you been enjoying your Christmas Eve so far? I hope you’re enjoying it at
least half as much as we are. When I was preparing for this message for you I
sat down at my keyboard and I got a nice, very brief message for you all from
the Galactic Federation. And as I was winding up the last couple of lines of it,
I heard this song coming to me, these words, I said, “That’s a song, a
Christmas song.” This I’m going to bring to you after I tell you what the
Galactic Federation said. Now I’ll just go right into their message.
The Galactic Federation would like me to express
their glad tidings to all of you. They say that the coming year is to be one
that will go down in history as the time when all that was dark and forbidden
came to the surface and showed the people of the world the utmost promise that
where there is victory there is truth.
Shine your lights unto the skies and know that as
you do the whole universe beams back to you in celebration and gratitude for the
works of The Creator and all the gifts of love that are bestowed upon us all. We
stand ready to ring in the New Golden Age with complete surrender to the Christ
in all of us. The gifts of the Magi are here, and we are singing with the chorus
of angels.
It
came upon the midnight clear,
That
glorious song of old,
From
angels bending near the earth,
To
touch their harps of gold;
“Peace
on the earth, good will to men,
From
Heaven’s all gracious King.”
The
world in solemn stillness lay,
To
hear the angels sing.
Still
through the cloven skies they come
With
peaceful wings unfurled,
And
still their heavenly music floats
O’er
all the weary world;
Above
its sad and lowly plains,
They
bend on hovering wing,
And
ever over its Babel sounds
The
blessèd angels sing.
Yet
with the woes of sin and strife
The
world has suffered long;
Beneath
the angel strain have rolled
Two
thousand years of wrong;
And
man, at war with man, hears not
The
love-song which they bring;
O
hush the noise, ye men of strife
And
hear the angels sing.
And
ye, beneath life’s crushing load,
Whose
forms are bending low,
Who
toil along the climbing way
With
painful steps and slow,
Look
now! for glad and golden hours
Come
swiftly on the wing.
O
rest beside the weary road,
And
hear the angels sing!
For
lo! the days are hastening on,
By
prophet-bards foretold,
When
with the ever circling years
Comes
round the age of gold;
When
peace shall over all the earth
Its
ancient splendors fling,
And
the whole world send back the song
Which
now the angels sing.
Written by Edmund H. Sears, 1849
