Читать книгу Best Loved Christmas Carols, Readings and Poetry - Martin Manser - Страница 22

This Christmas song is a popular contemporary carol and a frequent choice for children and families to sing during the festive season.

Come and join the celebration.

It’s a very special day.

Come share our jubilation:

There’s a new King born today!

See the Shepherds

Hurry down to Bethlehem,

Gaze in wonder

At the Son of God

Who lay before them.

Wise men journey,

Led to worship by a star,

Kneel in homage,

Bringing precious gifts

From lands afar.

‘God is with us,’

Round the world the message bring.

He is with us.

‘Welcome!’ all the bells

On earth are peeling.

Valerie Collison (b.1933)
