"While shepherds watched their flocks by night
All seated on the ground
The angel of the Lord came down
And glory shone around
Sweet bells, sweet chiming Christmas Bells
Sweet bells, sweet chiming Christmas Bells
They cheer us on our Heavenly way
Sweet chiming bells
Fear not, said He
For mighty dread had seized their troubled minds
Glad tidings of great joy I bring
To you and all mankind
Sweet bells, sweet chiming Christmas Bells
Sweet bells, sweet chiming Christmas Bells
They cheer us on our Heavenly way
Sweet chiming bells
To you in David's town this day
Is born of David's line
The Savior who is Christ the Lord
And this shall be the sign
Sweet bells, Sweet chiming Christmas Bells
Sweet bells, sweet chiming Christmas Bells
They cheer us on our Heavenly way
Sweet chiming bells
They cheer us on our Heavenly way
Sweet chiming bells
All glory be to God on high
And to the earth be peace
Goodwill henceforth from Heaven to men
Begin and never cease
Sweet bells, sweet chiming Christmas Bells
Sweet bells, sweet chiming Christmas Bells
They cheer us on our Heavenly way
Sweet chiming bells
While shepherds watched their flocks by night
All seated on the ground
The angel of the Lord came down
And glory shone around
Sweet bells, sweet chiming Christmas Bells
Sweet bells, sweet chiming Christmas Bells
They cheer us on our Heavenly way
Sweet chiming bells
Sweet bells, sweet chiming Christmas Bells
Sweet bells, sweet chiming Christmas Bells
They cheer us on our Heavenly way
Sweet chiming bells
They cheer us on our Heavenly way
Sweet chiming bells"

    I get the feeling that the people here, so well depicted by George Clausen, were real people of rural England that he caught in a moment of their daily struggles to live off the unforgiving land. We see them here through his eyes as he skilfully captured their strength, sheer determination and inherent beauty. It shines through his pictures, as freshly today as it did, though separated as we are across the century or more that divides us.

    I always associate RVW with 'the Golden Age of British Cinema' 1940s to '50s, Ealing Comedies, Powell and Pressburger and Gainsborough costume dramas. And the feeling of optimism after the Victory of '45 and the 'Now Win the Peace' optimism. I have always let this wonderful piece of music conjure up images of a serviceman or airman or sailor back with his girlfriend/fiancee/young wife walking across a sunny harvest landscape, taking in the views, stopping off at locations to refresh or make love, say in the hay or in the shade of a tree. While church bells ring in the background, a fair can be heard or even Morris dancers entertain locals and visitors. So English...but in the best kind of way
