BRING US LIGHT
(S. MCCANN-SOCAN)
BRING US LIGHT
TWO LITTLE GIRLS WERE ALL SET FOR BED UPON THAT SILENT NIGHT
I SANG THEM SONGS OF LOVE AND JOY TO DISSIPATE THEIR FRIGHT
OF TERROR AND OF HUMAN GREED AND TEACH THEM WRONG FROM RIGHT
THEN I POINTED TO A STAR THAT WAS A WONDROUS SIGHT
TWO LITTLE GIRLS WON'T GO TO SLEEP UNTIL THEY QUESTION ME
OF MAGI BOUND FOR BETHLEHEM CELESTIAL MYSTERY
AND WHY TWO THOUSAND YEARS HAVE PASSED WITH PAIN AND MISERY
THEN I POINTED TO THEM BOTH AND TOLD THEM THEY MUST BE
STARS SHINE ON BRIGHTLY BRING US JOY WITH YOUR FLIGHT
STAR OF WONDER MYSTIC KITE WON'T YOU GUIDE US BRING US LIGHT
BACK TO THE MEANING OF CHRISTMAS
