Author: F. E. Pettingell Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7912 Meter: 7.6.7.6 D First Line: Above earth’s din and turmoil Refrain First Line: And in that joyous choral Lyrics: 1 Above earth’s din and turmoil
The Christmas music rings,
And back to Heaven’s portals
The angel chorus wings.
Refrain:
And in that joyous choral
The children’s notes must blend,
For Jesus came to bless them,
He is the children’s friend.
2 A Babe of lowly advent,
A well belovèd Son,
He knows the needs of children,
He loves each little one. [Refrain]
3 A life sublime, unselfish,
A life of love He knew,
That He might be our pattern,
Might be the children’s, too. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: FARRINGDON
