Silent Night (A Strangers Account)

Hope seemed lost on the earth Israel was subject to every cruelty man had to offer in those days The Roman's stood on the graves of tradition and brave men Faith waned and hatred thickened amongst even the most pure of hearts Meanwhile, a woman in a rather small village was seeking a place to give birth to her child (Sleep in heavenly peace, Sleep in heavenly peace) No inn could she find with the help of her husband The two were desperate for shelter and that was when they came across a kind Sheppard who lead them to a small wooden hut There they were greeted by sheep, calf, a fully lit menorah and that of one golden pineapple (Christ the Savior is born, Christ the Savior is born) A boy had come forth into this world, and glory surrounded him in the manager where he so peacefully laid Drums and trumpets sounded in the distance Stars did flash and the earth did sing for some new life had been brought forth to mankind Hear O Israel, for Abraham's line has just taken root Blessed, blessed are those who come after (Jesus Lord at thy birth, Jesus Lord at thy birth)
