Victor Buhagiar Poet Lyric

Notes About The Poem

 

My Christmas Song

Light me a new candle,
  Put it before the manger,
    It is a bit cold, love.
      Yet we’re in no danger.

There's Jesus, a small babe
  In a cold, wintry day
    Lying on some fresh straw.
      Kneel down and calmly pray.

Mary, Joseph calmly,
  Adore the king of kings
    Shepherds come with their lambs
      Angels fly with bright wings.

Christ in Bethlehem born.
  Choirs sing heavenly hymns.
    Let us give Him His due
      Ask to forgive our sins.
