All On A Christmas Morning
Composer(s): Alfred Shaddick Burt
Performer(s): Jimmy Joyce
and multiple other artists
O, who are these that throng the way
To Bethlehem, to Bethlehem,
And onward press in glad array
All on a Christmas morning
Good Christian men and maids they are
From countries near and lands afar
Allured by yonder beckoning star
All on a Christmas morning
What do they hasten thence to see
In Bethlehem, in Bethlehem,
That they fare forth so merrily
All on a Christmas morning
O, they a vision fair would view
Would find the beautiful and true,
And faith and hope and love renew
All on a Christmas morning
And what is this they are carrying
To Bethlehem, to Bethlehem
What is it in their arms they bring
All on a Christmas morning
They bear good gifts in rich excess
Of love and joy and thankfulness
With which mankind they fain would bless
All on a Christmas morning
