What are some of your favourite Christmas songs and Christmas carols?
Here's one of my favorites, it's "Good King Wenceslas" and tells a story of a Bohemian king going on a journey and braving harsh winter weather to give alms to a poor peasant on the Feast of Stephen (December 26, the Second Day of Christmas). During the journey, his page is about to give up the struggle against the cold weather, but is enabled to continue by following the king's footprints, step for step, through the deep snow.
Wenceslas is the patron Saint of the Czech Republic.
