    What a treat Matthew! How lovely is the rich history of this carol.
    There is also a, Catechism of the Clock, which my dear departed mother provided and taught to her grandchildren. Very much like what you have revealed here.
    A very blessed Advent to you, Matthew. God reward your apostolate with much fruit in souls.

    I was taught as a child that "my True Love" is the little Jesus, and "me" is the soul. I love this carol. ❤ Blessed Advent!Joyeux Noel! Great video, Matthew. May God reward you.

    Considering this song gets played on secular radio stations this time of year with no one batting an eye, I’d say its messaging and intent is wildly effective. I’ve been a Christian for more or less my entire life and I didn’t know any of this!

    Hey I just wanted to ask if you could do a video on Saint Bridget of Sweden and her devotions one day. I mean the promises attached are just astounding. The 7 prayer 12 year devotion is one of the greatest and simplest devotions I have found. Here are the promises,
    1. The soul who prays them will suffer no Purgatory.
    2. The soul who prays them will be accepted among the Martyrs as though he had spilled his blood for his faith.
    3. The soul who prays them can choose three others whom Jesus will then keep in a state of grace sufficient to become holy.
    4. No one in the four successive generations of the soul who prays them will be lost.
    5. The soul who prays them will be made conscious of his death one month in advance.
    The 15 prayers is an amazing meditation with other great promises. I really hope you can help spread these devotions, keep up the great work and may God bless you!

    My church is holy/separate
    And catholic/universal
    But no church should be holy….we should be one like Jesus wants us to be!
    One over the whole planet!
    And we can get to this if we really consider the prayer of Jesus and become one! 6 Billion people are waiting for salvation!

    There are also the 9 choirs of angels, could the 9 ladies dancing be referring to them by any chance?

    I have listened to about 20 of your podcast so far and I’m gonna listen to a lot more but who are you? What is your name? What is your background? Where do you get this depth and commitment to the Catholic faith

      My name is Matthew Miller and I attended St. Louis de Montfort Academy for boys. It was run by a Catholic group called Tradition, Family Property. It's a group of lay men that are full time volunteers and dedicate their lives to spreading the message of Fatima and fighting Communism through public square Rosary Rallies and street campaigns. The campaigns could be against abortion, transgenderism or socialism and always garner an amazing reaction from the public. The thing that attracted me to this group at my first summer camp at the age 10 was the members were manly and pure, a very rare combination. I joined when I was 18 and did a variety of different RUclips channels for them. This one is just a hobby channel.
      Right now I'm taking the Fatima statue around Buffalo, NY trying to spread her message.
      That's about it, I guess.
      I love my job in the TFP, whatever it may be. We're a faithful echo of the Church's traditional teachings and are ready to give our lives defending it.

      Brings to mind situations and simple occasions that happen, although seem meaningless, are completely the opposite.

    Kind of malarkey. None of those 12 things were banned or outlawed in protestant England, so there would be no need to encrypt them in a coded song.

    • @catholicmenspodcast

      If you think that, then you clearly haven't read about the terrible persecutions in England. You should definitely get a book titled "The Autobiography of a Hunted Priest," by Father John Gerard.

      The Tudor Underground is another excellent book that opened my eyes. ​@@catholicmenspodcast
