Poem to be be sung to the tune of 'Hark the Heald Angels Sing'
At Christmas when earth is laden with snow
The world sparkles with a silvery glow
There is an exuberant atmosphere
Of peace, hope and an abundance of cheer.
Bright paper chains hung across the ceiling
Stirring the elating festive feeling
Fir trees magically decorated
An annual custom throughout the ages.
Come all people, o’er the earth
Share the glory of Christ’s birth.
Standing below street lamps, carol singing
The jubilant sounds of church bells ringing
Children waiting with anticipation
Santa’s visit to their habitation.
Chocolate coins displayed upon the tree
The little Father Christmas handkerchief
Placed inside stockings filled with candy treats
For the children, when rousing from their sleep.
Come all people, o’er the earth
Share the glory of Christ’s birth.
Family and friends share the special day
That commemorates Jesus Christ’s birthday
Joyfully merry, all day long they sing
In honouring Jesus, born King of Kings.
In a manger Mary's baby boy lay
Nestled gently on a bed made of hay
Angels watched o’er Jesus day and night
The child who was sent to shine Godly Light.
Come all people, o’er the earth
Share the glory of Christ’s birth.
