Twice each year I see this phrase spelled, and pronounced, both ways. I'm hoping that you can not only tell me which is correct, but also explain why. I will be so thankful to be able to put this one to rest... ~~JudiKaye

This might help. It's an image file so you'll have to click on it to enlarge it.
Also, this might shed some light on the issue.

Thank you! I especially enjoyed Mr. Meade's explanation in your first link. Now that I have a handle on the grammar of it, I only wish I could make as much sense of the thing, itself!! ~~JudiKaye
