G'day even again,

Now I'm at home ...

GUEST,jlmwhite@maxspeed.net.au: Here are the words for Merry Christmas, by John Wheeler & William G James - from their books of Australian Christmas Carols:

Merry Christmas

Sun gleams bright, hearts are light, Merry, merry Christmas.
Bells ring out, children shout, Merry, merry, merry Christmas.
Sheep in fold, shine like gold, as the day is dawning,
Riding by, stockmen cry, "Welcome Christmas morning".

Golden day, when we say, "Merry, merry Christmas".
In the street, when we meet, Merry, merry, merry Christmas.
And with pride, far and wide, all our homes adorning:
Earth and sky, sound the cry, "Welcome Christmas morning".

So with joy, man and boy, sing with us together;
On this morn, Christ was born; Merry, merry, merry Christmas.
Raise the song, loud and strong, in the shining weather,
Joy bells ring, Christ is King, Merry, merry, merry Christmas.

I have six of the most popular Wheeler & James carols set into easy to play keys:
Carol of the Birds (D)
Christmas Bush for His Adorning (D)
Christmas Day (C)
Merry Christmas (D)
Sing Gloria (G)
The Silver Stars are in the Sky (D)
The Three Drovers (D)

and I will e-mail the sheets to you ... in TIFF format (slightly more compact than GIFF ... ?

Christine:

I'm a bit busy, with the last music session of the year / Christmas Party of Backblocks ... but I get back to see if I have the words you need ... maybe ...

Regard(les)s,
