A Little Empty Attic

冬至過去，耶誕節又要來臨。

不是宗教就是商業化，這是Christmas的原罪嗎？ 
就算是藉口也好，能有一個日子開心的過，
這樣就很好了，我覺得。

我畢竟還不是大人，只求在一年之中，
有歡樂的時光能大家一起度過。

在冬天的傳統節日裡，送上一首宗教意味非常濃厚、
卻還是好聽的Christmas Carol。

What Child Is This



What Child Is This - Garth Brooks

William Dix, ca. 1865
17th century English air  Am

1. What Child is this, who, laid to rest
On Mary's lap is sleeping?
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet,
While shepherds watch are keeping.
This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing.
Haste, haste to bring him laud
The Babe, the son of Mary.

2. Why lies He in such mean estate
Where ox and ass are feeding?
Good Christian, fear: for sinners here
The silent Word is pleading.
Nails, spear, shall pierce Him through,
The Cross be borne, for me, for you.
Hail, hail, the Word made flesh,
The Babe, the son of Mary.

3. So bring Him incense, gold, and myrrh,
Come peasant, king, to own Him.
The King of kings salvation brings,
Let loving hearts enthrone Him.
Raise, raise the song on high
The Virgin sings her lullaby.
Joy, joy, for Christ is born
The Babe, the Son of Mary.
