One Small Child Later on, we'll conspire, Jeffrey Clarke As we dream by the fire, To face unafraid, One small child in a land of a thousand The plans that we've made, One small dream of a Saviour tonight Walking in a winter wonderland. One small hand reaching out to the starlight In the meadow we can build a snowman, One small Saviour of life And pretend that he's a circus clown One king bringing his gold and riches We'll have lots of fun with mister snowman, One king ruling an army of might Until the other kids knock him down. One king kneeling with incense and When it snows, ain't it thrilling, candlelight Though your nose gets a chilling One king bringing us life We'll frolic and play, the Eskimo way, See Him lying a cradle beneath Him Walking in a winter wonderland See Him smiling in the stall See His mother praising His Father See His tiny eyelids fall See the shepherds kneeling before Him

See the kings on bended knee Oh, See the mother praising the Father See the Blessed infant sleep.
