The Christmas Song - Ray Conniff

[00:00.33]She was his girl he was her boyfriend
[00:08.64]She'd be his wife and make him her husband
[00:10.38]A surprise on the way any day any day
[00:18.84]One healthy and little giggling dribbling baby boy
[00:26.1]The wise men came three made their way
[00:29.16]To shower him with love while he lay in the hay
[00:37.68]Shower him with love love love
[00:39.12]Love love love love love was all around
[00:40.56]Not very much of his childhood was known
[00:43.53]Kept his mother
[00:44.88]Mary worried always out on his own
[00:49.26]He met another
[00:50.7]Mary who for a reasonable fee
[00:55.41]Less than reputable was known to be
[00:57.09]His heart was full of love love love
[01:00.03]Love love love love love was all around
[01:02.07]When Jesus
[01:02.52]Christ was nailed to his tree
[01:03.99]Said Oh
[01:04.53]Daddy oh
[01:06.87]I can see how it all soon will be
[01:08.04]I came to shed a little light on this darkening sea
[01:11.13]Instead I fear
[01:13.59]I've spilled the blood of my children all around
[01:19.14]The blood of our children all around
[01:20.49]The blood of our children all around
[01:23.01]So I'm told so the story goes
[01:23.91]The people then knew they were less than golden hearted
[01:26.79]Gamblers and robbers drinkers and jokers
[01:28.68]But all soul searchers just like you and me like you and me
[01:30.33]Rumors insisted that he soon would be
[01:31.979996]For his deviations taken into custody
[01:35.85]By the authorities less informed than he
[01:41.1]Drinkers and jokers all soul searchers
[01:42.39]Searching for love love love
[01:46.619995]Love love love love love was all around
[01:48.69]Preparations were made for
[01:49.83]His celebration day
[01:50.4]He said eat this bread but think of it as me
[01:52.32]Drink this wine and dream
[01:53.64]It will be the blood of our children all around
[01:54.990005]The blood of our children all around
[01:59.43]The blood of our children all around
[02:00.78]Father up above why in all this anger
[02:01.89]Do you fill us up with love love love
[02:04.41]Love love love love love is all around
[02:08.88]And Father up above why in all this hatred
[02:37.38]Do you fill us up with love love love
[02:38.52]Love love love love love is all around
