First Take Friday #104 Gloria Written by Jonathan Brader Tale of the Tune: This is my little take on the sacred text, which translated to English is: Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to people of good will. We praise you, we bless you, we adore you, we glorify you, we give you thanks for your great glory, Lord God, heavenly King, O God almighty Father. Lord Jesus Christ, Only Begotten Son, Lord God, Lamb of God, Son of the Father, you take away the sins of the world, have mercy on us; you take away the sins of the world, receive our prayer; you are seated at the right hand of the Father, have mercy on us. For You alone are the Holy One, you alone are the Lord, you alone are the Most High, Jesus Christ, with the Holy Spirit, in the glory of God the Father. Amen. Thank you and Happy Christmas. In a year of totally strange occurrences, even when celebrating in a distanced way, I hoped to share with you the reason for the celebration. I missed some of the lyrics, but the bass added a good bit of earthly tones....I hope. JB

First Take Friday #103 Jesu Written by Jonathan Brader Tale of the Tune: I intended to write a song that told the story of Christmas. Unfortunately, the day job left very little time to write/re-write and practice this week, so I had to pull it together pretty quickly this week. I think it is a good start though. More to come. Merry Christmas, JB First Take Friday #102 Willie the Elf Written by Jonathan Brader Tale of the Tune: I wrote this song about that little 6" elf that breaks into our home around Christmas. We affectionately call him Willie the Elf. He really likes to stay in the same place for a day or two, taking in all the action, I guess. Likely conspiring with the animals to conquer the universe and take over for Santa, but who really knows right? Just kidding - he's just a lazy little elf. Merry Christmas and hang in there, JB First Take Friday #101 Christmas Party Written by Jonathan Brader Tale of the Tune: Who doesn't love a Christmas Party? Eggnog, White Elephant Gifts, Sleeping with the Reindeer in the Barn. This tune is written from the perspective of Father Christmas. He and Mrs. Claus are hosting a Christmas Party. Mrs. Claus makes a mean cookie, and Mr. Claus makes a mean Eggnog, so bring the sleigh but don't drive it home. Merry Christmas! JB |
