Shall I tell you who will come
|
To Bethlehem on Christmas morn
|
Who will kneel gently down
|
Before the Lord
|
-before the Lord
|
Newborn?
|
|
Chorus:
|
One small fish from the river
|
With scales of red, red gold
|
One wild bee from the heather
|
One gray lamb from the fold
|
One ox from the high pasture
|
One black bull from the herd
|
One goatling from the far hills
|
One white, white bird
|
|
Repeat Chorus
|
|
Sung Counterpoint:
|
|
One large fish from the sea
|
Too shiny to behold
|
One tame moth from a tree
|
Stable stoled
|
One colt from the green meadow
|
One bear cub fat & furred
|
One goatling-
|
And one white, white bird
|
|
And many Children-
|
God gave them grace
|
Bringing tall candles
|
To light Mary's face
|
|
Repeat Chorus
|
|
First verse repeated and sung counterpoint to chorus
|
|
One bird...
|
White, white bird
|
White, white bird
|
