Solomons and Text by Thomas Clarke. This setting for Christmas represents the cold of a Northern winter (the cruel wind blows) although of course the actual events took Place in rather warmer climes.

All of the Places are in Devon, except Callington, which is in Cornwall, but it is likely to be the correct Place since it is so close to the centre of the events - ie towns and villages North and West of Dartmoor. (the Yetties' version of the song refers to "North Looe", but this is very unlikely to be correct, since Looe is much further into Cornwall).

It soothes his sorrows, heals his wounds, and drives away his fear. Dear name! the rock on which I build, My Shield and Hiding Place, My never-failing Treas'ry filled With boundless stores of grace. Jesus, my Shepherd, Brother, Friend, My Prophet, Priest, and King, My Lord, my Life, my Way, my End, Accept the praise I bring. Weak is the effort of my heart, and cold my warmest thought; But when I see thee as Thou art, I'll praise thee as I ought. Till then I would Thy love proclaim With ev'ry fleeting breath; and may the music of Thy name Refresh my soul in death.  less
