Band Trivia is BACK!

The lyrics of this carol are by the 19th century American Unitarian minister 
Edmund Sears. In America, it is sung to a melody by organist Richard Storrs 
Willis; in England, they use a tune composed by Sir Arthur Sullivan. The 
carol's lyrics speaks of mankind's unwillingness to heed the angel's message 
of peace and goodwill; ironically, it was penned only ten years before the 
outbreak of the Civil War.
