Christmas
Have you heard that clear melodious sound before
Insistent like someone knocking at your front door
If you could taste it it’s probably sweet like sugar cane
It’s only a bird joyfully singing its Christmas again
Strange but you can sense it in the atmosphere
Even the silence gently saying Christmas is here
Across the land children rehearse Christmas plays
Decorate Christmas trees in many colourful ways
Buying special gifts for families and friends so dear
An exciting pleasant exercise we do it every year
How can we ever this historical day disremember
The true and real meaning of that day in December
Born in a manger in a stable our precious Lord
Peace and joy angelic voices singing in one accord
Wise men sought him brought three gifts and saw
A little baby but Mary’s baby is a baby no more
And that is why with grateful hearts we sing
Joy to the world for Jesus is our coming King
Happy Christmas and goodwill to all out there
Let’s spread this message of hope everywhere
