G'day GUEST,twright@vic.australis.com.au / Jackie,
These are the words you request:
CHRISTMAS DAY
Words John Wheeler Music William G James
The north wind is tossing the leaves.
The red dust is over the town;
The sparrows are under the eaves,
And the grass in the paddock is brown;
As we lift up our voices and sing,
To the Christ-child the heavenly King.
The tree ferns in green gullies sway;
The cool stream flows silently by;
The joy bells are greeting the day,
And the chimes are adrift in the sky,
As we lift up our voices and sing,
To the Christ-child the heavenly King.
Regards (& have a Merry Christmas),
Bob
