The second song in Chip Davis' "Christmas Sweet". But I thought all the birds had flown south for the winter...? Anyway...Enjoy, and Merry Christmas!

thanks for uploading

All of the birds don't fly south...its dependent upon the species and where you are...

Beautiful! I loved the melody before, thanks for posting the lyrics, makes it all the sweeter to listen.

[Prancer1231]

Hark how the greenfinch bears his part,

Philomel, too, with tender heart,

Chants from her leafy dark retreat,

Re, mi, fa, sol, in accents sweet.

Angels and shepherds, birds of the sky,

Come where the Son of God doth lie;

Christ on the earth with man doth dwell,

Join in the shout, “Noël, Noël!”

[Prancer1231]

Whence comes this rush of wings afar,

Following straight the Noël star?

Birds from the woods in wondrous flight,

Bethlehem seek this holy night.

“Tell us, ye birds, why come ye here,

Into this stable, poor and drear?”

“Hast’ning we seek the newborn King,

And all our sweetest music bring.”

[gazunt]

what a pleasure to listen to!

This song is awesome, unique, and all the above!
