A MUSICAL FAMILY

We are a musical family

So getting gifts should easy be

But when I look for what they ask

Goodness me! No easy task

But I will do my very best

to get them all that they request

our Bett will want a clarinet

For our Winn a violin

Mum she is a a nice Alto

But of all things she wants a piccolo

Arthur wants a new guitar

Wonder how much they are

And for sister Emily

Dad says it's called a DVD

Glasses for Gran she loves to see

Old time dancing on TV

Hayley wants new carols to play

On the piano on Christmas day

Julie wants a set of drums

Don't know why ,she is still young

and sucks her thumbs

Grandad will teach her for he

plays in the band on his ukulele

Oh there will be such a noise

From the  girls and from the boys

I hope our neighbours go away

overseas on Christmas day

But if recession still goes on

We shall be back to days long gone

Dad says we must never get in debt

I think there will be some money left

For when the icy icy winds did blow

and the lanes were blocked with snow

Men  were pleased with a pair of socks

For ladies a warm scarf I a pretty box

People would save and always always gave

what  money they could afford

The offering of a gift to our dear Lord

It's now called Christmas day

It is also our Lord' birthday

So to Whitehill Church make your way

For in this Church we always see

God will take care of you and me
