Little Children, Can You Tell?
Author: Anonymous Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #3596 Meter: 7.7.7.7.6 First Line: Little children, can you tell Lyrics: 1. Little children, can you tell,
Do you know the story well,
Every girl and every boy,
Why the angels sing for joy,
On the Christmas morning.
2. Yes, we know the story well;
Listen now, and hear us tell
Every girl and every boy,
Why the angels sing for joy,
On the Christmas morning.
3. Shepherds sat upon the ground,
Fleecy flocks were scattered round,
When a brightness filled the sky,
And a song was heard on high
On the Christmas morning.
4. Joy and peace! the angels sang;
Far the pleasant echoes rang;
Peace on earth, to men good-will;
Hark! the angels sing it still
On the Christmas morning.
5. For a little Babe that day
Cradled in a manger lay,
Born on earth our Lord to be;
This the wondering angels see
On the Christmas morning.
6. Joy our little hearts shall fill,
Peace and love, and all good-will;
This fair Babe of Bethlehem
Children loves, and blesses them
On the Christmas morning. Languages: English Tune Title: CHRISTMAS MORNING

Little children, can you tell
Hymnal: The New Sabbath School Hosanna #106a (1870) Lyrics: 1 Little children, can you tell,
Do you know the story well,
Every girl and every boy,
Why the angels sing for joy
On the Christmas morning?
2 Shepherds sat upon the ground,
Fleecy flocks were scatter'd round,
When the brightness fill'd the sky,
And a song was heard on high,
On the Christmas morning.
3 "Joy and peace," the angels sang,
Far the pleasant echoes rang;
Peace on earth, to men good will!"
Hark! the angels sing it still
On the Christmas morning.
4 For a little babe that day,
Christ, the Lord of angels, lay,
Born on earth our Lord to be;
This the wondering angels see
On the Christmas morning.
5 Let us sing the angels' song,
And the pleasant sounds prolong:
This fair babe of Bethlehem
Children loves, and kisses them
On the Christmas morning.
6 "Peace" our little hearts shall fill,
"Peace on earth, to men good will!"
Hear us sing the angels' song,
And the pleasant notes prolong,
On the Christmas morning. Tune Title: CHRISTMAS MORNING

Author of "Little Children, Can You Tell?" in The Cyber Hymnal In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
