i love words

I have to say I really enjoy Christmas carols. And lately We Three Kings has really struck me. There is so much power in this song I feel. I wish we sang all of these verses because it goes beyond just Jesus' birth. Just look: (yay!)
verses
We three kings of orient are, bearing gifts we traverse afar.
Field and fountain, moor and mountain, following yonder star.

Born a king on Bethlehem's plain, gold I bring to crown him again,
King forever, ceasing never, over us all to reign.

Frankincense to offer have I, incense owns a Diety nigh,
Prayer and praising, all men raising, worship him God on high.

Myrhh is mine it's bitter perfume, breathes a life of gathering gloom:
Sorrowing sighing, bleeding dying, sealed in a stone cold tomb.

Glorious now behold Him arise, King and God and Sacrifice;
Alleluia, Alleluia, sounds through the eath and skies.

chorus:
O star of wonder, star of night, star with royal beauty bright, westward leading, still proceeding, Guide us to Thy perfect light.

Karl is coming to Ontario!!!

Hey there everyone,
I just talked to Karl and am completely pumped out of my brain with excitement that he is going to be coming to Ontario at the end of this month. This is beyond exciting and I have decided that it would totally be completely selfish of me to hog him and keep this amazing guy just to myself. So, I thought that it would be great if we could get together at Christmas and have a reunion. (This is basically aimed at the Ontario people, but if you are wanting to come to Ontario that would be fantastic as well!) Karl will be coming on the 29th, til the 9th, so some time in there would be great! I'm not sure about any details or thought about where and when, but let me know if any of you would be into that, and even more so, wanting to have it at your place. I would be more than willing to have it here, but you all have been to my place, so that wouldn't be that original. Let me know your thought and we can start getting this ball rolling. Sweet deal!! I'm excited!
