Lyrics

Gather round girls and boys It's time to make your joyful noise Some feel it in the feast after the fast Or the oil lamps everlasting Or the Solstice in the wild Or the birth of a baby child (chorus) It's your holiday song No one more true or right or wrong When our faith calls our name Someone else's does the same Hallelujah! Thank you So gather round girls and boys It's time to raise your lowly noise Some feel it in the drum, in the snare Or the silence of their prayer Or the church bells on the hill Or the harmony of goodwill (chorus) For every voice lifted in song The sacred place we all belong A chance to heal a broken world With every voice in every song Of every boy and every girl! (chorus repeat)
