We celebrate him on a December day
Two thousand years ago he came to Earth
In a straw filled manger he lay

Mary and Joseph were elated at his birth
The son of God part of a trinity
Two thousand years ago he came to Earth

We recall the scene of nativity
Singing carols in churches and public halls
The son of God part of a trinity

School children are now drawing pictures on walls
Bringing the story of his birth to life in colorful hues
Singing carols in churches and in public halls

Christmas day is but a few days away for me and you
A day of reflective thought and prayer
Bringing the story of his birth to life in colorful hues

Over Bethlehem shone a bright star it's brilliance rare
A day of reflective thought and prayer
We celebrate him on a December day
In a straw filled manger he lay
