pig fo the Ve eS Christmas Eve The snow flakes have fillen, The moon is shining bright. Yes, it’s very beautif This joyous Christmas night. The chapel bells are ringing, The choir boys are singing. Yes, everyone is cheerful, This joyous Christmas night. On this same night, many years ago, Guided by a star, Three Wisemen came on ceanelback, With gifts brought from «fer. These gifts were for li* ‘\* Jesus, Who in his cradle lay, In a cold, distant stab] . All bundled up in hay. This are been remembered, And still is to this day. For, we too give gifts of friendship, And with them we all say; ‘MERRY CHRISTMAS! [T. woody Geade IX, Bethlehem's Child A star shombrightly, we are told, The night the wisemen travelled bold. The night they rode to praise a birth, The greatest one upon our earth, They bowed their heads and gave a prayer, To the child laying there, In a manger spread with hay There the Holy Baby lay, A halo bright, about his head, The angels sang and blessed his bed. The shepherd's lamb, fleecy white, Lay by the bed all through the night. Then the angels prayed for them "God bless this child of Bethlehem." AMEN . Doreen Zelisney, Grade VI. -
