Fr. Bill’s CD Lyrics
Blanket of Stars: Christmas Mercy
CHORUS:
Your Mercy sent the angels,
it calmed the shepherds’ fright
Helped Joseph find the birth-place,
A shelter from the night
There’s Mercy born at Bethlehem
It’s God whose reach is long
It’s calling every voice to sing
His Christmas Mercy Song!!
To let us embrace the Good News
And with the Virgin, God’s will we choose
We’ll know the presence of Mercy at Christmas
To fill human hearts with a sweet-joy song
He came and absolved all our sin and wrong
Right from the first there was Mercy at Christmas!!
(Repeat Chorus)
If we want Peace on the earth to begin
We can’t tell God there’s “no room at the Inn”
Born is the gift of Mercy at Christmas!
If we can just turn from our selfish ways
Seek holy virtue, spend time in praise
We’ll find ourselves wrapped in Jesus this Christmas!
(Repeat Chorus)
(Final: So, Come All Ye Faithful, Come . . .)
