<p>O sing a song of Bethlehem, of shepherds watching there,<br>
|
|
And of the news that came to them from angels in the air.<br>
|
|
The light that shone on Bethlehem fills all the world today;<br>
|
|
Of Jesus’ birth and peace on earth the angels sing alway.</p>
|
|
<p>O sing a song of Nazareth, of sunny days of joy;<br>
|
|
O sing of fragrant flowers’ breath, and of the sinless Boy.<br>
|
|
For now the flowers of Nazareth in every heart may grow;<br>
|
|
Now spreads the fame of His dear Name on all the winds that blow.</p>
|
|
<p>O sing a song of Galilee, of lake and woods and hill,<br>
|
|
Of Him Who walked upon the sea and bade the waves be still.<br>
|
|
For though like waves on Galilee, dark seas of trouble roll,<br>
|
|
When faith has heard the Master’s Word, falls peace upon the soul.</p>
|
|
<p>O sing a song of Calvary, its glory and dismay,<br>
|
|
Of Him who hung upon the tree, and took our sins away.<br>
|
|
For He who died on Calvary is risen from the grave,<br>
|
|
And Christ, our Lord, by heaven adored, is mighty now to save.</p>
