Lyrics~
Joyful mystery, the birth of our Lord.
This night our Lady and St. Joseph was going up to get registered and, um, they were going down the road and they met this man and he said, "Have you any room?" and he said, "No, but there's an old stable over there that I owned, if yous want to go into it." And they went over and the Lord came down from the heaven at twelve o'clock and loads of beautiful angels was with them, and when they were walkin'.

I walk the streets of Dublin town
It's eighteen forty-two
It's snowing on this Christmas Eve
Think I'll beg another bob or two
I'll huddle in this doorway here
'Til someone comes along
If the lamp lighter comes real soon
Maybe I'll go home with him
Maybe I can find a place I can call my home
Maybe I can find a home I can call my own

These three wise kings, um, they were all from different countries.
And they always used to look up at the sky and they looked up this night and saw this beautiful star up in the sky. And when they were going they all meeted together and they had to pass King Herod's, not that we much care for him. And they went in and he said, "Where ye goin' with yer best stitches on ye?"

The horses on the cobbled stones go by
Think I'll get one, one fine day
And ride into the countryside
And very far away
But now as the daylight disappears
I best find a place to sleep
Think I'll slip into the bell tower
In the church just down the street
Maybe I can find a place I can call my home
Maybe I can find a home I can call my own

And they said, "Did you not hear the news?" and say he says, "What news?" He says, "This day the Savior is born." And he says to them, "When you find him come back and tell me 'cause I want to go and adore him too." And he was only coddin' them. He wanted to kill him and when they were going, they stopped and they said, "Surely not this old stable that our King is born in. We were expecting a palace."

Maybe on the way I'll find the dog
I saw the other night
And tuck him underneath my jacket
So we'll stay warm through the night
And as we lie in the bell tower high
And dream of days to come
The bells o'er head will call the hours
The day we will find a home
Maybe I can find a place I can call my home
Maybe I can find a home I can call my own
Maybe I can find a place I can call my home
Maybe I can find a home I can call my own

There was these shepherds and shepherds are fellas that mind the foals and cows and sheep's and little lambs and all and, um, they hears this beautiful music up in the sky and they were wondering what was so fun. An angel dissipated them and he said, "I was wonderin' what was so fun" and he said ye, and he said, "The savior is born. If yous want to go see him, follow that star up in the sky," and it was a beautiful star.

Peace~

Winter Solstice Blessings~

On this day, cold, dank and dreary, be still breathe in the air, nearing again the Oaken King, while Spring doth rest her head...

It all goes by in the blink of an eye, rest in this and know, as certain as the Winter wind doth blow.

Take sustenance in knowing...
Without Winter, there could be no Spring for this is something I truly know...

Be still, breathe in the Blessings of The Ancients~

The finger on the lips equals 'shuush' or 'do not speak' . Jesus said, "Bring everything into the light."

[MistressReba]

I agree, I put the shhhhuush image there as in 'be still, listen for him, even in silence for he is everywhere'

Thank You and God/Dess Bless~

Love & Light

[Resurrector22]

I Love this song

Thank you very much

[MistressReba]

Thanks for visiting! I too enjoy the song, always have.

I have always tried since she made it to post it around Christmas/Yule. I have always felt the child's voice is as much a part of it's special meaning as any other part of it.

No body was pulling the 'wool' over his eyes in it were they? He knew what that Herod was up to!

Seriously, I love the song, and of course I love Loreena McKennitt, such an incredible singer.

Again, thanks for visiting & commenting.

Peace~

Merry Christmas Special Lady! Sorry I am just getting back around. My computer crashed and the tower just too far to climb for one who has not mastered the gift of walking yet.....but I am getting stronger every day. Santa did leave an early gift "BUT" I have lost so much *Bangs Head* and I have no desire to use Vista. I hope the Christmas Season finds you in good health. Beautiful Video Reba! May the Christmas Magick find and keep you in its grasp..Love Misty

[MistressReba]

(((((Misty)))))

Merry Christmas to you also sweetie!

Hate that your computer crashed, I know that feeling too. Also hate that your ankle is still hurting you so bad, life eh'

Sounds like Santa did deliver a NEW computer to you hum 'smiles' as far as Vista, this is my 2nd comp with it and I love it, would NEVER trade it off!

Dear heart, I always try my best to 'dig my heels in deep' and just keep plowing!

Glad you enjoyed the Video, it is short but cannot sit real long.

Love, Light Magick!

[UnPleasantSuprise]

Me being a metal fan, I think its wierd that I get attatched to a song like this. But then again, it IS Loreena McKennitt

Who can NOT love her music?

[wattlebough]

Hey there mate, the message of the song is two stories, she is singing about a simple homeless child living in Dublin, Ireland in 1842 dreaming of a more hopeful future. While in between, the voice of a child is telling the nativity story of the birth of Jesus. A beautiful juxtaposition of themes in the eye of this beholder.

Kind regards

[novokarpati]

These lyrics remind me of a story about "The Little Match Girl", which I read to my baby girl decades ago. I don't know, but, I think that all babies and small innocent ones go directly to the King of Kings the moment of passage...death of the flesh. Pray for the peace of Yerusalem, the Lion of the Tribe of Judah, will...someday , enter the Eastern Gate of the Holy City. It is His destiny.  + + +

[MoonWaterLily]

Wow this made my eyes teary ^^' So beautiful.

[Geenflauwekul]

It's so beautiful. Words can not discribe

[stat1791]

Lapsed Catholic and Irish-American. This song touches my soul.

[DJStroodle]

This reminds me less of christianity and more of pagan beliefs.

[Marguerite21]

This is a very interesting unusual song. I'm even glad that there's lyrics. Especially since there's a girl with a very heavy Irish accent.
