Merry Christmas!

As A Child Like Me
Dear God, you have made this earth so fair
In radiant beauty it gleams everywhere,
Almost it seems that this world may be
Too beautiful--just for a child like me:
The fragrant flowers that bloom and grow
The dew and the rain, the frost and snow,
The trees that reach far up to the light
The rainbow bridge with colors so bright,
The brooks that wander over meadow and lea
The fish, the boats and the great busy sea,
Softly I move lest some near beauty mar
AS some lovely vision is seen from afar,
Again in Your great and boundless love
Gave Your most precious gift from above,
Leaving His throne and His kingly crown
Your beloved Son to earth came down,
As He came in the purple and velvety night
The star shone forth with glorious light,
That men might find Him and worship there
This Son of God so holy, helpless and dear
As a Prince of Peace to earth came He
A baby small- just as a child like me.
Henri Lee

We wish you a Merry Christmas,
We wish you a Merry Christmas,
We wish you a Merry Christmas,
And a Happy New Year!

refrain:
Glad tidings we bring
To you and your kin,
Glad tidings for Christmas
And a Happy New Year!

Please bring us some figgy pudding,
Please bring us some figgy pudding,
Please bring us some figgy pudding,
And bring it right here!

refrain

We won't go until we get some,
 We won't go until we get some,
We won't go until we get some,
Please bring it right here!
