A Child's Carol
Will the star be marking
The way I should go?
Will the angels in the darkness
Guide me through the snow?
Will I need a donkey
To go to Bethlehem?
Will it take a long time
If I visit them?
Joseph in the stable,
The baby fast asleep,
Mary by a candle,
Will I get a peak?
Wisemen came on camels,
Had many gifts to bring.
Shall I take my lamb then
To give the little thing?
All you need's a step now
To kneel before the king.
You'll be there by bedtime.
Nothing need you bring.
He will find much dearer
Just a head that bows.
He has come to hear you,
Whisper him you vows.
Holly it will glisten,
The ivy it will grow.
Stars will give their glimmer
Like flakes of hov'ring snow.
Peter Dale (b. 1938), used by permission.
