Product Description

An Exmas Carol, for alto and classical guitar, was written on Christmas day 1984. It takes the melody of "O Little Town of Bethlehem" in the guitar part and the voice has its own tune lamenting the fact that we have ceased to hear or understand the message of the Christmas story.


Oh Lonely child of Bethlehem
How quiet you do lie
We cannot hear above the din
your message from the sky
And evening stars together sing the same old Christmas piece
But in our loves we're fast asleep
and strife will never cease

The kingdoms of this world pass on
and never shall return
but man forgets it's all in vain
we never seem to learn
And evening stars together sing the same old Christmas piece
But in our loves we stay asleep
and strife will never cease

Oh lonely Child, humanity!
How quiet, quiet, you do lie...
