Holiday Song: O Parve Vice Bethlehem

[Laura Gibbs]

For the 2008 Christmas carols, visit the Gaudium Mundo blog.

I found this group today for the first time, as I looked for the words to O parve vice bethehem, which I remember learning in high school. Some of the words I remember don't appear in any of the versions shown here, namely these: in viis tamen lucet aeterna sancta lux...

Hi Christine, there are so many different versions that circulate in handouts that teachers have made! I am hoping that people will find their way to the blog (I've moved it here: GaudiumMundo.blogspot.com) and contribute the versions they have from their handouts. It is so interesting seeing the different ways in which the songs have been translated into Latin from English! :-)
