Do not be afraid, for I have redeemed you.
I have called you by your name;
you are mine.
When you walk through the waters,
I’ll be with you;
you will never sink beneath the waves.
When the fire is burning all around you,
you will never be consumed by the flames.
When the fear of loneliness is looming,
then remember I am at your side.
When you dwell in the exile of a stranger,
remember you are precious in my eyes.
You are mine, O my child,
I am your Father,
and I love you with a perfect love.
Words by Gerard Markland based on four verses from the Book of Isaiah, Chapter 43.
Not many songs make me weep but Lully, Lulla, Lullay is one of them. A marvel of the highest angelic order.
Here’s a stunning version from Belfast Cathedral conducted by Philip Stopford the composer himself. Oh my, those acoustics 🥰

Golden sparkly hexagonal prisms of snow. Aaarrrggghhhh losing my magical mind over here 🤩 I loves snow. ❄️


This is such an awesome set from Eddie Halliwell containing many old school, hard house tunes I went crazy for. I like it even faster and harder these days but it felt like he had the future at his fingertips with mixes like this. He was a firework and the crowd loved him.

Never thought Frosty the Snowman could be such a wild ride but my, it sure is with Bublé and the Puppini Sisters 😃💃🏽🕺🏽✨

Stunning music from Choeur du Carmel de tous les Saints.
Some yummy vegan Christmas recipes here. I tried the smashed tatties tonight. Yum! I’m a tattie demon 🥔😈🥔😈🥔 I cannae help myself when they’re around.

Please support my worthy goal ✨🙏🏽✨

Super beautiful set from Cosmic Gate. Uplifting with surprisingly fat bass. Trippy, celestial sounds and old school trance vibes. Melodic and fairly chill. The beat drives you on 🤩💃🏽🕺🏽✨✨

Fun, clever, gripping films I’ve partaken in recently.
Ghosts of Girlfriends Past
Fracture
Wind River
Currently trying out The Peripheral. I’m a sucker for time travel 😊🙄

Rich image from Fracture.
Ambient rain and melancholic harp in tonight’s live stream. Join me at 20:30 GMT for some peaceful, relaxing sounds.

Pain needn’t be suffering 24/7. You can distract yourself in many different ways. Laughter can be a beautiful cure. Enjoying the warmth of the sun, another. Ooo and smooth Christmas jazz helps too 😎

OwowO Andre Bocelli’s rendition of O Holy Night just blew me away. Love his voice. Makes me feel melancholicly high 💓

I haven’t been into giving and receiving presents for years and years. I’ve been such a traveler, without family, so it wasn’t a thing. Yesterday I opened a big box from my sweet mother in law and found all these parcels. I cried a little and realised how much I’d missed them.

I’m a member of the fb group Oriental Shorthairs Rule!! because I’ve got a fairly unhealthy obsession with the breed. I found this catto capture and thought it personified so well the general mischievousness of cats at Christmas time (and all times let’s be honest 😸).
