CALYPSO CHRISTMAS CAROL ~ ENJOY

BRIAN & ANGELA

 

 

SEE HIM LYING ON BED OF STRAW

A draughty stable with an open door

MARY cradling the babe she bore

The PRINCE of GLORY is his name !

 

Star of silver sweep across the skies

Show where JESUS in a manger lies

Shepherds swiftly from your stupor rise 

To see the SAVIOUR of the WORLD

 

ANGELS sing again the song you sang

Bring GOD's glory to the heart of Man

Sing that Bethlehem's sweet baby can

Bring Salvtion to your soul

 

Oh now carry me to Bethlehem

To see the Lord of Love again

Just as poor as was the stable then 

The PRINCE of GLORY when he came !

  • Comment from author about the poem: This is a very popular CHRISTMAS CAROL in the UK and was wriiten in 1943 by Micheal Perry ~ not from BARBADOS WI ~ but Kent UK ! The lyrics remind us that JESUS left the riches of Heaven and was born in a poor lowly stable to bring His Spiritual Riches to the whole human race. It was the most significant event in the whole of human history ! We even changed the date from BC (before Christ came) to AD ~ ANNO DOMINI ~ In the year of Our Lord. That was 2016 years ago and on 25 December the whole World will celebrate His Birth ! CHRISTMAS IS ~ ALL ABOUT THE BOY ~ Jesus Christ ~ Son of God ~ Saviour of the World ~ AMEN ! You can listen to several sung versions of the carol on YOU TUBE ~ Love to ALL at Christmas ~ BRIAN XOX
