      Fall Softly Snow

      Fall softly snow. Blanket everything with purest white.
      Fall softly snow. Everything is holy here tonight.
      Shepherd boy upon the hill
      Bid your flock be very still.
      Fall softly snow. A child is born tonight.

      Shine brightly star. Wise men bringing gifts come from afar.
      Oh Holy light, brightest of them all, the Eastern Star.
      Herald angels from on high,
      Sing a tender lullaby.
      Fall softly snow. A child is born tonight.

      The time is here. Oh Holy Night, the angels sing.
      And from on high, heavenly hosts proclaim the King.
      In the manger by her side,
      Mary's eyes are filled with pride.
      Fall softly snow. Fall softly snow.
      The Christ child has just arrived. .... Silent night.

      A Place Called Bethlehem

      In a town called Bethlehem,
      Long ago and far away
      A tiny baby child was born
      And in a manger lay.

      They called this baby Jesus.

      The boy child was soon a man
      As the years went swiftly past.
      All the world began to know,
      The promised King was here at last.

      They called this man Jesus.

      He Taught a troubled world to love.
      He healed the sick. He fed the poor;
      Told people of a place called Heaven
      And how to reach that open door.

      They called his name Jesus.

      Many who lived in that time
      Were filled with hate and fear.
      Jesus knew as each day passed,
      His death was drawing near.

      They called his name Jesus.

      One dark and desolate day
      It happened as the Good Book said,
      He hung upon a wooden cross
      A crown of thorns upon his head.

      They called his name Jesus.

      As Christmas time again draws near
      Each and everyone does know
      That a child was born in Bethlehem
      A long, long time ago.

      They called his name Jesus.
