I happened to find my way to a Chinese chemical company website recently (long
story) and when I got to the English speaking part of the site, the song
"Silent Night" began playing, no words, just music. It was a surreal
moment for me, this song that comes from the very heart of Christianity coming
from a company in communist China. I have to wonder if they know what the song
is about or if someone just picked it out because it was a nice sounding song
from the west.
