THE JOY STRINGS
Joy Webb
It was on a starry night when the
hills were bright
Earth lay sleeping, sleeping calm
and still.
Then in a cattle shed, in a manger
bed
a boy was born, king of all the
world.
And all the angels sang for him,
the bells of heaven rang for him,
for a boy was born, king of all
the world.
Soon the shepherds came that way
where the baby lay
and were kneeling, kneeling by his
side.
And their hearts believed again
for the peace of men,
for a boy was born, king of all
the world.
