歌曲歌詞
All the streets are
Filled with laughter and light
And the music of the season
And the merchants windows are all bright
With the faces of the children
And the families hurrying to their homes
As the sky darkens and freezes
Will be gathering
Around the hearths and tables
Giving thanks for God's graces
And the birth of the rebel Jesus
They call him by the prince of peace
And they call Him by the Savior
And they pray to Him upon the seas
And in every bold endeavor
And they fill His churches
With their pride and gold
As their faith in Him increases
But they've turned the nature
That I worship in
From a temple to a robber's den
In the words of the rebel Jesus
We guard our world with locks and guns
And we guard our fine possessions
And once a year when Christmas comes
We give to our relations
And perhaps we give a little to the poor
If the generosity should seize us
And if any one of us should interfere
In the business of why there are poor
They get the same as the rebel Jesus
But please forgive me if I've seemed
To take the tone of judgment
For I've no reason to come between
This day and your enjoyment
In this life of hardship fill the earthly toil
We have a need for anything that frees us
So I bid you pleasure and I bid you cheer
From a heathen and a pagan
On the side of the rebel Jesus
In this life of hardship fill the earthly toil
They have a need for anything that frees us
So I bid you pleasure and I bid you cheer
From a heathen and a pagan
On the side of the rebel Jesus
