{monday melodies} a song to start your week

I have always found Christmas Eve to be both somber and giddy. Alfred Delp‘s quote seems particularly fitting for today; and somehow holds the weight of that serious joy.

A few years ago, my friend, Isaac Anderson, wrote a Christmas song – It Won’t Be Too Long Now – which also carries that festive gravitas. This song sticks with you — even builds and grows in you. The words are few, but the message they carry is more than enough.

Another friend, Mike Crawford, recorded a version of this song. » Hear it here. «
I often listen to it on repeat, even beyond Christmas time.

Because it bears repeating…
