"Winter program" lyrics

Quote of the Day: Secularized `Silent Night' Lyrics

"Cold in the night, no one in sight/winter winds whirl and bite/How I wish I were happy and warm/safe with my family, out of the storm."

-- Lyrics to an altered version of "Silent Night" that will be sung during Ridgeway Elementary's "winter program" in Dodgeville, Wis., cited by Citizen Link, an e-newsletter produced by the conservative Christian group Focus on the Family, as the latest affront to the religious significance of Christmas.
