50 YEARS ON....THANK YOU1

The Lord's bright blessing

The music from this Christmas special is timeless (and very hard to find). It isn't played every year on TV (although it should be). The music is full and rich, with moving lyrics and engaging melodies. This is an excellent out-of-the-ordinary selection of sheet music for the holidays.
