What Joseph Mohr didn’t know is that the lyrics to the little poem he had penned two years earlier would forever become part of the Christmas celebrations, not only in his small Austrian alpine village, but around the world. This gentle song would become the centerpiece of reflection and worship for the Saviour-King, born in a Bethlehem stable.

      God certainly used your ancestor to give us a wonderful and God glorifying song. Thank you for listening to the podcast! It means a lot to me!
