Favourite Christmas Song

"Christmas Must Be Tonight" Paul Kelly

Come down to the manger, see the little stranger

Wrapped in swaddling cloths the prince of peace

Wheels start turning, torches start burning

And th old wise men journey from the East

Chorus:

How a little baby boy brings the people so much joy

son of a carpenter, Mary carried the light

This Must be Christmas, must be tonight

A shepherd on a hillside, while over my flock I bide

On a cold winter night a band of angels sing

In a dream I heard a voice, saying "fear not, come rejoice"

Chorus:

How a little baby boy brings the people so much joy

son of a carpenter, Mary carried the light

This Must be Christmas, must be tonight

I saw it with my own eyes, written up in the skies

But why a simple herdsman such as I?

And then it came to pass, he was born at last

Right below the star that shines on high

Chorus:

How a little baby boy brings the people so much joy

son of a carpenter, Mary carried the light

This Must be Christmas, must be tonight
