A Joyous Day Called Christmas
A Joyous Day Called Christmas
James M M Baldwin
In the darkness of the winter solstice
Under the stillness of a moonless night
Comes a joyous day called Christmas
In a gorgeous spectacle of brightness
In A Luminous season of gladness
Comes a joyous day called Christmas
Among selfless acts to help the helpless
Amid gracious hope for the hopeless
Comes a joyous day called Christmas
While precious children lie restless in slumber
As a gifted songstress sings a wondrous hymn
Comes a joyous day called Christmas
As witness to a sinless child born of justice
In an ageless promise of righteousness
Comes a joyous day called Christmas
