Composer Adolphe Adam, who also wrote the ballet \u003cem\u003eGiselle\u003c\/em\u003e, set the words to music that same year. The hymn's most famous English version came later, from John Sullivan Dwight, a Boston music critic and Unitarian minister, in 1855. It has been a holiday favorite ever since, and it was reportedly the first piece of music ever broadcast over radio, in 1906, when Reginald Fessenden played a violin performance of it on Christmas Eve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis card carries that reverence into a simple nativity scene. Mary and Joseph stand with halos over the manger, and the baby lies in the straw beneath a star with radiating rays. The scene sits inside a house-shaped frame, with sparkle crosses scattered across the sky and the script words \"oh holy night\" flowing along the bottom. Every line of the design is printed in gold foil, so the whole card glows as it catches the light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside, the verse reads: \"May His love surround you at Christmastime and always.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCard Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5 in × 7 in (12.7 cm × 17.78 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 16 cards, 17 envelopes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInside Verse:\u003c\/strong\u003e \"May His love surround you at Christmastime and always.\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArtwork:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nativity scene in a house-shaped frame, with halos over Mary, Joseph, and the baby in the manger, a star with rays, sparkle crosses, and script lettering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e All gold foil print\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Religious Favorites, design 5 of 12\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Paper Images","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67670113190041,"sku":"210000131170","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0421\/8204\/9945\/files\/lkb0w2nyrenhbjiqjego.png?v=1791732952","url":"https:\/\/www.countrychristmasloft.com\/products\/religious-favorites-christmas-card-set-oh-holy-night","provider":"The Country Christmas Loft","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
