Here In The Dryness And Dust Of Our Climate
Tune: Away In A Manger
British Methodist pastor and hymn writer Andrew Pratt wrote: "A short while ago, Rex Hunt from Australia asked me to write a hymn for Christmas -- but Christmas down under! For those of us in the northern hemisphere this pushes us back to story and theology, away from snow and ice. So think surf and sunshine!" Thisnew hymn will offer northerners new Christmas imagesthat are familiar to southerners.
