Daylight vanished
Night time lurked behind
Stars dotted into sight
Pearly gates opened wide

Angels hurried by
Carried a child
With the blood of god
Down to earth below

This child to walk the streets
Touch the poor
Feed the weak
Give life to those who weep

Given to a mother
In a barn in the night
Three holy man
Holding presents
For this child of peace

A star shone bright
Outside this barn
This light
That brought many from all around

The child named
“Jesus”
Grew very old and wise
And gave happiness to those in pain

Then carried a cross up a hill
Nailed to this wood
With a throne worn crown
Died slowly in front of all

Now buried in a tomb
Came back to life
On the day he said
Now he walked the earth again
Given peace to all that believed…
