The Heathen And The Holy - Hey Merry Christmas
00
Copied!
{Verse 1: Tom Hobden}
All is still in the candlelight
He knows the pews are packed tonight
His voice rings out
Pure and bright and strong
The holy song
As midnight mass draws to a close
He takes his seat deep down he knows
The tears and smiles of his
Parents’ show their pride
He glows inside
{Chorus: Tom Hobden}
Hey Merry Christmas everyone
The joy and the laughter have begun
The Heathen and the Holy are at one
At Christmas time
{Verse 2: Tom Hobden, Fred Abbott}
Now what’s this? A girl out on the street
Can you spare somе change, she’s got nothing to eat
Is that a passеr by? She gets
To her feet and cries
Despair in her eyes
“It’s freezing cold, what you doing out here?
No one should be alone at this time of year
There’s a place I know
You can dry your tears, come with me
I think there’s room ‘round the tree
{Chorus: Tom Hobden & Fred Abbott}
Hey Merry Christmas everyone
The folly and the feasting have begun
The lofty and the lowly are at one
At Christmas time
{Verse 3: Fred Abbott}
There’s a house ahead with an open door
Where the lights shine bright and the fire roars
It’s a place you know
You’ve been there before, come inside!
Everything’s alright!
There’s a warm mince pie and a glass of mulled wine
Turkey in the oven, mmmm smells divine!
There’s a Christmas tree enrobed in splendour
It’s the majesty of each December. It’s Christmas time
Mistletoe hanging by a flickering candle, It’s Christmas time
Stockings lined up ready on the mantle, It’s Christmas time
A choirboy sings with the voice of an angel
A song that you know so well!
{Chorus: Choirboy}
Hey Merry Christmas everyone
The joy and the laughter have begun
The heathen and the holy are at one
At Christmas time
{Bridge: Tom Hobden & Fred Abbott}
A song that you know so well, song that you know so well
A song that you know so well, song that you know so well
A song that you know so well! song that you know so well
A song that you know so well!
{Chorus: Tom Hobden & Fred Abbott}
Hey Merry Christmas everyone
The joy and the laughter have begun
The Heathen and the Holy are at one
At Christmas time
Hey Merry Christmas everyone
The folly and the feasting have begun
The lofty and the lowly are at one
At Christmas time
At Christmas time
At Christmas time
