II Is a tale OF skies that rang
With angel rhapsodies sublime;
or that great host, serene and white,
The shepherds saw one winter
night
And Of the glorious stars that sang
An anthem once upon r time.
This story OF the hallOwed years
Tells OF the sacrifice sublime
or One who prayed alone and wepi
While his weariod followers slept
And how His blood and Mary's tears
Commingled once upon a time
And now my darling az my side
And echoes Of the distant chime
Bring that sweet story back 70 me.
OF Bethlehem and Calvary.
And Of the gentle Christ that died.
For sinners once upon q time
The mighty deeds that men have told
In ponderous tonea OF fluent rhyme
Like misty shadows fade away,

And. Ike the stars that sang OF old.
