Bless all the dear children in thy tender care, And fit us for heaven to live with thee there.  lay='';$(this).getParent().style.display='none';">less

When Johnny pass'd under a Lady's fine house, Pass'd under a Lady's fine room, fine room, She call'd to her maid: "Go fetch me," she said, "Go fetch me the boy that sells broom, green broom!" When Johnny came into the Lady's fine house, And stood in the Lady's fine room, fine room, "Young Johnny" she said, "Will you give up your trade And marry a lady in bloom, full ...    lay='';$(this).getParent().style.display='none';">less

The stars are brightly shining It is the night of our dear Saviour's birth Long lay the world in sin and error pining 'Til He appeared and the Soul felt its worth A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn Fall on your knees; O hear the angel voices! O night divine, O night when Christ was born O night, O holy night, O night divine!
