about

Grey Anne's "Dickinson's Christmas Carol" series of home recordings, combines well-known holiday melodies w/ Emily Dickinson poems.

This one is "Away In A Manger" + "I Went To Heaven."

lyrics

I went to heaven,--
'T was a small town,
Lit with a ruby,
Lathed with down.
Stiller than the fields
At the full dew,
Beautiful as pictures
No man drew.
with People like moths,
with mechlin frames,
with gossamer work
And eider names.
Almost contented
I could be
'Mong such unique
Society.
