when a child is born
bing crosby
a ray of hope flikkers in the sky
a shiny star lights up way up high
all across the land dawns a brand new morn
this comes to pass when a child is born
a rosy fume settles all around
you've got the feel you're on solid ground
for a spell or two no-one seems forlorn
this comes to pass when a child is born
a silent wish sails the seven seas
the winds have changed whisperin the trees
and the walls of doubt crumble tossed and torn
this comes to pass when a child is born
because whe world is waiting
but a child that would grow up and turn tears to laughter
and everyone to everyone's neighbour
misery and suffering would be forgotten forever
it's all a dream and illusion now
all across the land dawns a brand new morn
this comes to pass when a child is born
all across the land dawns a brand new morn
this comes to pass when a child is born
