Notable Women: Christmas
Christmas Carol
The kings they came from out
the south,
All dressed in ermine fine;
They bore Him gold and chrysoprase,
And gifts of precious wine.
The shepherds came from
out the north,
Their coats were brown and old;
They brought Him little new-born lambs --
They had not any gold.
The wise men came from out
the east,
And they were wrapped in white;
The star that led them all the way
Did glorify the night.
The angels came from heaven
high,
And they were clad with wings;
And lo, they brought a joyful song
The host of heaven sings.
The kings they knocked
upon the door;
The wise men entered in,
The shepherds followed after them
To hear the song begin.
The angels sang through all
the night
Until the rising sun,
But little Jesus fell asleep
Before the song was done.
