Rapparee, I had one of those, nearly sang it one Christmas service. A bit less apocalyptic, though.

Oh little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie
Above thy shallow troubled sleep
Israeli tanks roll by.

Above thy dark streets shineth
The sniper's laser light
And rocket launchers take their stand
Deliver'ing death tonight.
