I Believe In Father Christmas---Greg Lake
They said there'll be snow at Christmas
They said there'll be peace on earth
But instead it just kept on raining
A veil of tears for the virgin's birth
I remember one Christmas morning
A winters light and a distant choir
And the peal of a bell and that Christmas tree smell
And their eyes full of tinsel and fire.
They sold me a dream of Christmas
They sold me a silent night
And they told me a fairy story
'till I believed in the Israelite
And I believed in Father Christmas
And I looked at the sky with excited eyes
'till I woke with a yawn in the first light of dawn
And I saw him and through his disguise.
I wish you a hopeful Christmas
I wish you a brave New Year
All anguish pain and sadness
Leave your heart and let your road be clear
They said there'll be snow at Christmas
They said there'll be peace on earth
Hallelujah noel be it heaven or hell
The Christmas you get you deserve.
On a lighter note, Happy Holidays, Everyone. :)

Barenaked Ladies featuring Sarah McLachlan recorded God Rest Ye Merry Gentleman and I listened to it repeatedly over the Christmas holiday. It's great!! In fact, I'm still listening to it. :-) Here is the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HGVNzgUxE-g
Beautiful post, by the way. :-)
Thank you.
For both of these. :)
