Now holy Peace may smile from heaven,
And heavenly Truth from earth shall spring:
The captive’s galling bonds are riven,
For our Redeemer is our king;
And He that gave his blood for men
Will lead us home to God again.
– Excerpt from Music on Christmas Morning, Anne Bronte

You’re welcome. One of mine as well. Although my favorite Bronte is Charlotte, I can’t help but love the sweetness of Anne’s voice (writing).

Absolutely gorgeous, thanks so much for posting this! I forget that some of my favorite authors published poetry or short stories in addition to their novels. I love this. Merry Christmas and a Happy 2015!

And to you skyblueandgreen. There are several other stanzas in the poem which you can probably google. This one was my favorite. Best wishes for a Happy and Healthy New Year, Mary
