Over The River Comes Santa Claus Lyrics


Christmas Carols

Over The River Comes Santa Claus Lyrics
1. Over hills and over plains
Ring a thousand bells,
Each the same great truth proclaims,
Each the story tells;
Old, old story, ever new,
Wond'rous story, ever true.

[Chorus:]
Old, old story, ever new.
Wond'rous story, ever true.

2. Shepherds watching once by night,
Watching long ago,
Heard a Seraph choir bright
Murmur soft and low -
"Goodwill and love, love and goodwill."
Then Angels spoke, and all was still, [Chorus]

3. Very humbly, in a manger -
Holy stars in sight -
Lowly lies a little stranger,
Messenger of light.
He, the promised of old,
He, the Saviour long foretold. [Chorus]

4. Haste ye, shepherds, see the wonder,
Fear not mock or scorn;
Mark how in proud David's city
Christ your Lord is born.
His great mission ne'er shall cease
Till the world be filled with peace. [Chorus]

5. Sound the truth o'er all the nations,
Wide your joy-bells fling;
Christ has live - our great exemplar,
Brother, Lord, and King.
Sound Christmas, ye seem to say,
"God's peace be unto all this day." [Chorus]
