A Song for Saint Cecilia’s Day

Saint Cecilia

In this minisode, the lyrics are read of a poem written by the English poet John Dryden in 1687 to commemorate Saint Cecilia’s Day (November 22). It is a wonderful description of the joy of God’s creation. It was adapted half a century later by Georg Frederic Handel and put to music.
