Listen! An angel chorus sings! Now the time has come My alabaster box to offer. With tapestries of snow upon my head And bouquets of times gone by I shout with the angels Telling the hills a glorious tiding. We come from a land far away Our knees bend low to honor The little King so holy. Kings feast on rich repast A sleepy world dreams on The voice of the trumpet sounds But in this alabaster box My reward will live on! |
Heavenly Babe! Sleep tight in your mothers arms! Someday when you wake The morning will arise With crashing mountains Open to your embrace Once again the angels sing You and I will be face to face! |
