Rub-a-dub-dub,
Thanks for the grub,
Without the Lord no
one would care
The father the son
And the spiritual one
The guardian angels of
heavens host
They all make sure the
tables not bare
Rub-a-dub-dub,
Thanks for the grub,

Oh God to you we pray
To let
peace on earth come our way
Oh God to
you we pray
Would that
we could have our way
Oh God
grant this day
That peace
on earth will come our way
Oh God, we
hear you say
That peace
on earth will come our way
If we could
from this day
Just live
Christmas every day

(Sung to the tune of Sixteen Candles)
Christmas
Candles, make a lovely light
But not as
bright as the light of Christ
(as the light of Christ) (Oh)
Light up the candles, for all the world to view
For every candle
says, Happy Christmas to you
(Happy
Christmas to you)
Twas the night before Christmas, and all through Bethlehem,
Joseph was searching for a room for them
He searched
and he searched all round the town
But nowhere
to stay for them could be found
So they
went to a stable and in a bed made of hay
The Christ
child was born on the first Christmas Day
We stand around the Christmas tree
And sing to
the Christmas melodies
We thank
the lord for what we are
Standing
beneath the Christmas star
To
celebrate the Christ child's birth
When he
came to us to save the earth
All bowed before the newborn
In that
stable forlorn
Shepherds
and their beasts
And the
magi from the east
The noble
men of wealth
Concerned about his heath
Gave gifts of myrrh, frankincense and gold
Gifts his tiny hands could not hold
And at the
centre of this scene
Slept the
young King serene
