A spaceman came travelling
A story speaks a thousand truths to a million people...what does it say to you?
A spaceman came traveling on his ship from afar 'Twas light years of time since his mission did start And over a village he halted his craft And it hung in the sky like a star Just like a star ----- He followed a light and came down to a shed Where a mother and child were lying there on a bed A bright light of silver shone round his head And he had the face of an angel And they were afraid ----- Then the stranger spoke He said" Do not fear I come from a planet a long way from here And I bring a message for mankind to hear" And suddenly the sweetest music filled the air ---- And it went la la ------ Peace and goodwill to all men And love for the child ------ This lovely music went trembling through the ground And many were wakened on hearing that sound And travelers on the road The village they found by the light of that ship in the sky Which shone all around ----- And just before dawn At the paling of the sky The stranger returned and said " Now I must fly When two thousand years of your time has gone by This song will begin once again, to a baby's cry --" And it went la la ------ This song will begin once again To a baby's cry ---- And it goes la la ---- Peace and goodwill to all men And love for the child ---- Oh the whole world is waiting Waiting to hear the song again There are thousands standing on the edge of the world And a star is moving somewhere The time is nearly here This song will begin once again to a baby's cry Last edited by Céline; 01-31-2010 at 09:39 PM. |

Re: A spaceman came travelling
I love that song Celine ... one of my favourites...
How about this one... Found this on my travels...the words have been slighlty altered below... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ground Control to Hatonn Commencing countdown, engines on Check ignition, and may God's love be with you Ten, Nine, Eight, Seven, Six, Five, Four, Three, Two, One, Liftoff This is Ground Control to Hatonn I have really made the grade It does not matter what I wear Now it's time to leave the earth if you dare "This is Hatonn to Ground Control" I'm stepping through the door, and the dark And I'm floating in a most peculiar way And the stars look very different today For here I am sitting in a starship Far above the world Planet Earth is blue And there's nothing I can do Though I'm past one hundred thousand miles I'm feeling very still And I think my starship knows which way to go Tell Creator God I love Him , He knows viking |
