Twittering the Common tree lighting

Rae4dmb is posting updates even as I type this:

The high school choir changed the lyrics 'jesus is king' to 'ding dong ding ding'.

7:49 update: Alright, who tripped over the Boston Common extension cord? Looks like power at the Common just went poof.

Secular carol

Actually, it sounds like they were performing the original version of the carol, which was written as a New Years Eve "luck song". The "Jesus is King" part was a later revision.

I never heard it sung "Jesus is King" ... not even when I sang it in church.

Was that a Catholic revision?
