Handel’s Messiah: Invest in a CD or tape and bathe your family in this beautiful classic, clearly composed under divine inspiration – each segment a Bible verse prophesying the birth, life, death, and finally the resurrection of Jesus. (The Hallelujah Chorus was a celebration for Easter morning following the Lenten absence of alleluias.)
