Silent Night

Silent Night the heaven's sang
While shepherds wathced their sheep.
With Camels bearing kinds on high
To lay reverrently at HIS feet

Gold and Frankinsense and Myrhh
the symbols of His life.
A life so filled with sweetness
With love and full of care
Of helping a brother on his way
of lending a shoulder to share
the burdens of this wicked world

The Trails and temptations
of Satan who strews our way
with Pitfalls and damnation

He gave us a path 
that we may follow
a path so filled with light
That if we choose the lighted path 
then nothing can transpire
To take away the joys of life

And bring to all we know
A truly Christian feeling
One that will set hearts aglow

So on this festive morn
Let every Christian born
Listen to that silent plea
be good, be brave and follow Me.
