Oh, the snowflakes fell in silence Over Belleau Wood that night For a Christmas truce had been declared By both sides of the fight As we lay there in our trenches The silence broke in two By a German soldier singing A song that we all knew. Though I did not know the language The song was "Silent Night" Then I heard my buddy whisper, "All is calm and all is bright" Then the fear and doubt surrounded me For I'd die if I was wrong But I stood up in my trench And I began to sing along. Then across the frozen battlefield Another's voice joined in Until one by one each man became A singer of the hymn. Then I thought that I was dreaming For right there in my sight Stood the German soldier 'Neath the falling flakes of white And he raised his hand and smiled at me As if he seemed to say Here's hoping we both live To see us find a better way. Then the devil's clock struck midnight And the skies lit up again And the battlefield where heaven stood Was blown to hell again. But for just one fleeting moment The answer seemed so clear Heaven's not beyond the clouds It's just beyond the fear. No, heaven's not beyond the clouds It's for us to find it here. Garth Brooks Broke Down During an Emotional Moment From His Concert With Trisha Yearwood. Garth Brooks had to take a moment to collect himself while performing live on Sunday night. During CBS's Garth & Trisha Live! A Holiday Concert event, which is re-airing on the network Wednesday evening, Garth and his wife, Trisha Yearwood , took song requests from fans online and performed various holiday numbers like "Silent Night" and "O Holy Night" from their Nashville home. But while tackling all of the classics, one fan insisted that Garth play "Belleau Wood," a 1997 song inspired by a documented World War I Christmas ceasefire between opposing troops. .@garthbrooks breaks down during an emotional live performance of “Belleau Wood” on his @CBS special #GarthandTrishaLIVE pic.twitter.com/t5p4MEuiFO — ET Canada (@ETCanada) December 21, 2020. Before Garth began, Trisha told her husband, "Good luck, buddy. This one makes me cry and I never cry." Sure enough, while strumming his guitar and singing about the "snowflakes that fell in silence over Belleau Wood that night," Garth got choked up.

  • George Strait Pure Country Album Download Pure Country
    george strait pure country album download Pure Country. George Strait is one of the leading proponents of a traditional country music that is styled with Texas swing, delivering his music with a rich, no frills voice and a straight-ahead delivery. PURE COUNTRY is the soundtrack to Strait's film debut, offering a variety of swinging shuffles, traditional honky tonk, weepy ballads and country rockers. He wears his influences proudly, and having been doing it so well for so long, he has, in turn, become a major influence on the next generation of new traditionalists. One can clearly hear Merle Haggard, Bob Wills and George Jones in his music; but give a listen to new guys like Clay Walker, and you'll hear a distinctive George Strait influence. Riding a flat-bed of fiddle, pedal steel and genuinely heartfelt vocals, Strait takes the listener on a tour of the country singer's world. On the uptempo "Heartland," George explains that to "sing a song about the heartland" is to "sing a song about my life." The album's hit, "I Cross My Heart," is a strong love ballad co-written by one of Nashville's best current songwriters, Eric Kaz. A gentle fiddle leads the listener into the cry-in- your-beer classic "When Did You Stop Loving Me," and before long the fiddle is weeping alongside George. Strait cuts loose on several songs, but its the trademark hard country tracks like Mel Tillis' "Thoughts Of A Fool" that work best. Jim Lauderdale provides the strongest and most traditional sounding material (particularly "King Of Broken Hearts"), yet both of his songs have clever, modern musical twists.

  • Don't Breathe
    Carole Nelson Douglas 1 From the CAST OF CHARACTERS anthology in trade paperback and eBook Don’t Breathe by Carole Nelson Douglas The Hunt I’m in need of some serious hiding. Behind a garage or a garbage can won’t do. My thumping heartbeat tells me I’ve wasted way too much time considering options. My eyes scan the familiar neighborhood. The houses’ front landscaping is the first place they’ll search. They’ll also go for the massed ferns on the north walls, although I love the earthy, medicinal smell there, where in the past I've hunkered on my belly like cat, feeling safe and reassured. No, not safe in the back yards. Even the jungle-thick plantings around Mrs. Menard’s hidden fish pond are too obvious. I hear their deep voices calling, coming closer. Any sprint of more than fifteen feet will give me away. Think, Cathy! I’ve hidden myself all over this neighborhood and I don’t care about getting dirty. I must hide completely. I can’t be found. I can’t be found. Right now I’ve boxed myself into the alley. I hear them tromping around the houses’ side yards. No fences in this neighborhood. I’m still standing in the late afternoon daylight, feeling naked and visible. Must disappear totally. Fast. There! Fresh-trimmed brush by the Heinz’s dented aluminum garbage can. Barbed-wire sharp branches top a huge pile of grass clippings turning sage green. I fling the thorny branches aside and burrow like a bone-hungry dog into the dying grass clippings.

HARRISON A NUMBER OF BRITISH citizens were attracted to eastern New Mexico during the latter part of the nineteenth century. Among them was Thomas Simpson Carson who spent a decade or more in that region. Only a handful of New Mexico citizens c~m remember Carson today, but, unlike most visitors, he left a written account of his stay, as well as of his travels to many other parts of the world. Almost unknown today, his two books give an interesting account of New Mexico as it appeared to an intelligent Scotsman during the final years of the last century.1 While Carson's account cannot be substantiated in every detail by available evidence, he appears to have been reasonably accurate in recounting his experiences. A native of Scotland, Carson began his world travels just before the Franco-Prussian war, when he went to Germany to study the language.
