Tripod - Christ Is Born

sing hallelujah Christ is born
darkness is over wondrous dawn
witness the savior Christ is born
beautiful child tender and mild
Christ is born

as we meditate upon the wondrous sight
a brand new baby boy born upon a starlight night

lets not try to focus on the subsequent bloody death

sing hallelujah trumpets will sound this happy morn
fall on your knees for Christ is born
small baby face thorns in the head

Christ is born
ponder on the vision of this sacred scene
see a virgin mother and her love serene
don't you be distracted by the later events such as
whips with hooks, ripping flesh

sing hallelujah Christ is born
spear to the chest NO! Christ is born
message of peace forevermore

dogs fighting over morsels of flesh
crowds spitting hate in Aramaic
Christ is born chubby little fingers nails in wrists

i wish i hadn't seen that damned Mel Gibson film
