Navidaddy - December 7: While The Child Lay Sleeping

Here's a quiet piano instrumental by Wayne Jones called While The Child Lay Sleeping. I found it years ago on a compilation album of "winter songs" put out by Target's Lifescapes collection. This odd album has become somewhat of a favorite of Amy & I because it's fitting background music that helps support the quietness of the season. Of course, as soon as the child wakes up, that quiet is gone!
