Little Donkey
Monday, November 3, 2008 9:56 No CommentsLittle donkey, little donkey
On a dusty road
Got to keep on plodding onwards
With the precious load.
Been a long time little donkey
Thro’ the winter’s night.
Don’t give up now little donkey
Bethlehem’s in sight.
Ring out those bells tonight
Bethlehem, Bethlehem.
Follow the star tonight
Bethlehem, Bethlehem.
Little donkey, little donkey
Had a heavy day
Little donkey carry Mary
Safely on her way.

On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day?
And what was in those ships all three,
On Christmas Day in the morning?

Wing your flight o’er all the earth;
Ye who sang creation’s story
Now proclaim Messiah’s birth.
Chorus:http://allspiritchristmas.co.uk/

Watching o’er your flocks by night,
God with us is now residing;
Yonder shines the infant light:

Brighter visions beam afar;

While Shepherds Watched
Saturday, October 25, 2008 14:11 No CommentsWhile Shepherds Watched
While shepherds watched
Their flocks by night
All seated on the ground
The angel of the Lord came down
And glory shone around
And glory shone around
“Fear not,” he said,
For mighty dread
Had seized their troubled minds
“Glad tidings of great joy I bring
To you and all mankind,
To you and all mankind.”
“To you in David’s
Town this day
Is born of David’s [...]
The First Noel

The First Noel, the Angel did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay -
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep
On a cold winter’s night that was so deep.

They looked up and saw a star
Shining in the East beyond them far
And to [...]

Once in Royal David’s City
Saturday, October 25, 2008 12:49 No CommentsOnce in Royal David’s City
Once in royal David’s city,
Stood a lowly cattle shed,
Where a mother laid her Baby,
In a manger for His bed:
Mary was that mother mild,
Jesus Christ, her little Child.
He came down to earth from heaven,
Who is God and Lord of all,
And His shelter was a stable,
And His cradle was a stall:
With the poor, [...]
O Little Town of Bethlehem

O little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie!
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by.
Yet in thy dark streets shineth

The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight
O morning stars together
Proclaim the holy birth
And praises sing to God the King
And Peace to [...]
