Christmas Villanelle
CHRISTMAS VILLANELLE
Come join the birthday, celebrate, rejoice
For One who woke the world to set it free
To sing our carols with uplifted voice
Then with His blessings and with power of choice
Our eyes are opened now that we may see
Come join the birthday, celebrate, rejoice
Unchained from sin and close writ law invoice
We grant to others each their right to be
And sing our carols with uplifted voice
Make Merry drink from cups of fine alloys
No close confinement laid on by decree
We join the birthday, celebrate, rejoice
Though tribulations drew our sails from hoist
Let these dark storms pass on into our lee
And sing our carols with uplifted voice
In time to come we’ll know long waited joys
And we shall lift our hearts with new esprit
So join the birthday, celebrate, rejoice
To sing our carols with uplifted voice
