Gläns över sjö och strand

A Cristmas hymn much loved in my country. It is my favourite Christmas song along with O Holy Night. I have been singing and hearing it every Christmas since first grade in school. The music was composed 1893 by a Swedish woman Alice Tegner.

Here with acoustic guitar only.

Merry Christmas everybody!
