A spaceman came traveling

On his ship from a far

It was light years away

Since his mission had start

And over a village

He halted his craft

And it hung in the sky like a star

Just like a star.

He followed the light

Came down to the shed

Where a mother and child

Where lying there on a bed

And a bright light of silver

Shone his head

And he had the face of an angel

And they were afraid.

And the stranger spoke

He said do not fear

I’ve come from a planet

A long way from here

And I bring a message

From mankind to hear

And suddenly the sweetest music

Had filled the air.

And it went

La, la, la

Peace and goodwill to all man

And love for the child

And it went

La, la, la

Peace and goodwill to all man

And love for the child.

This lovely music

Went trembling through the ground

And many were waken

On hearing the sound

And travelers on the road

The village they found

By the light of that ship in the sky

That 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

The song will begin once again

To a baby’s cry.

And it went

La, la, la

Peace and goodwill to all man

And love for the child.
