Holy, holy, child in a manger
beautiful, calm, pure and peaceful
No one alive was there on that day
And few were the ones who welcomed him in
Holy, holy, child in a manger
loving, caring, kind and helpful
They flocked to his feet, from miles they came
But few were the ones who believed in his name
Holy, holy, child in a manger
Tortured, beaten, hung, unfearful
They mocked his name, the one they had praised
And few heard his words while he died for their sakes
Holy, holy, child in a manger
Forgotten, doubted, [can't remember, can't remember]
This is the reason we gather tonight
A child, holy, holy, but forgotten all the same
He came, holy, holy, but we don’t recall his name
Holy, holy, child in a manger
beautiful, calm, pure and peaceful
He did as was biden, on that cold, dark night
and came to a world who does naught in the way
of thanking the one who came to save
but to gather around a shining tree and open the presents
forgetting He came
Merry Christmas, everyone. Don’t forget that He did come. Don’t forget why He came. And don’t forget that He comes again.
Have a blessed holiday, kidlets. =D
