Angel’s Lullaby In a city, a holy city came news of comfort and great joy, the Virgin Mary had borne a Savior, the Christ Child, a tiny boy. O Jesu____, sweet Jesu, O Jesu, and Emmanuel, O Jesu____, sweet Jesu____, and Emmanuel. Then came wise men to the stable, and as they were passing by, they heard the angels gently singing, singing a lullaby. Venite____, venite____, venite adoremus Dominum, Venite____, venite____, venite adoremus Dominum. Then the wise men and all the shepherds and all the people standing by, joined their praises to God by singing, singing this lullaby. Venite____, venite____, venite adoremus Dominum, Venite____, venite____, venite adoremus Dominum. Since that baby left the stable, music fills the empty sky, it is the music, the gentle music, the angels’ lullaby, lullaby, lullaby. Silver Bells Christmas makes you feel emotional. It may bring parties or thoughts devotional. Whatever happens or what may be, Here is what Christmas time means to me. City sidewalks, busy sidewalks dressed in holiday style. In the air there’s a feeling of Christmas. Children laughing, people passing, meeting smile after smile, And on ev’ry street corner you hear: The clear sound of Silver bells, silver bells, It’s Christmas time in the city. The city. Ring-a-ling, hear them ring, Soon it will be Christmas day. Silver bells, hear them ring, ting-a-ling. Strings of street lights, even stop lights blink a bright red and green, As the shoppers rush home with treasures. Hear the snow crunch, see the kids bunch, this is Santa’s big scene, And above all this bustle you hear: The clear sound of Silver bells, silver bells, It’s Christmas time in the city. The city. Ring-a-ling, hear them ring, Soon it will be Christmas day. There a sound all around of silver bells. Goin’ On a Sleigh Ride Goin’ on a sleigh ride.
