Do the Unborn Children Know Its Christmas Time?

Do the unborn children know its Christimas time?

At Christmas time

We recall the night when all of Creation stood still

O Blessed Night

Creator meets Creation and all of Creation’s fulfilled

When the Virgin Mother gave birth in a stable to the Holy Child

We recall in her spotless womb for nine months dwelt Our Lord Jesus Christ

So spare a thought, say a prayer over Christmas time

For the pregnant and all the child-bearing

If they fear that their child will be a burden then tell them 

"This is a burden worth sharing"

Pray they’ll have the courage to bring into the World the children in their wombs now residing

‘Cos its is a darkened World where the Light of Christ

Is in clear, present danger of dying

Tell me does the unborn child?

Does the unborn child?

Do the unborn children know its Christmas time?

At Christmas time

We recall the night Our Lady gave birth to her Son

Wrapped her Child in swaddling clothes in a manger near the oxen

Shepherds saw and followed the bright night Star of Bethlehem

Heard a chorus of Angels shout "Peace, joy, goodwill to all men"

So say a prayer, say a prayer over Christmas time

For the schools our Shepherds should be protecting

Pray they’ll tell Connexions they’re bang out of line

Unborn children really are worth defending!

What good are good grades if they don’t know their Faith

Is the Catholic Faith now academic?

In Catholic schools, morning after pills, abortion referrals 

‘What no telling?’

Now tell me does the unborn child?

Now tell me does the unborn child?

Do the unborn children know its Christmas time?

At Christmas time

We recall the night when St Joseph was warned in a dream

To take Our Lady and the Child to another nearby country

So on a donkey they fled Bethlehem and found their way abroad

O Blessed Flight when St Joseph acted in accordance with the Lord

But just recall the reason why St Joseph took Our Lady and the Christ Child to Egypt

It wasn’t for a nice winter holiday or to look at some exotic pyramids

It was because the Angel of the Lord warned St Joseph of the Roman Emperor, Herod

He wanted Jesus dead, the true King he feared

Ordered the Massacre of the Innocents!

Every family’s first born child!

Every familiy’s first born child!

The children of Bethlehem

Slaughtered at Christmas time!

At Christmas time

We recall the night when the Virgin held the Christ in her arms

The teenage Mother adores the true Son of God

O Blessed Mother pray for all expectant mothers to your Son, the most High

And for all who didn’t expect a conception at this time

Let us recall one moment only months earlier

When Our Lady met her holy cousin

The child in Elizabeth’s womb St John the Baptist, Herald of the Messiah

When Elizabeth heard the sound of Our Lady’s voice

St John leapt for joy inside his mother

The unborn child knew the Unborn Child

Of Our Lady was his Saviour and Brother

Now tell me does the unborn child?

Does the unborn child?

When will the unborn children know that its Christmas time?

How can God be a child, how can a child be God?

How can the Lord of Lords become a zygote?

The Saviour of the World!

The Saviour of the World!

Our Lord Jesus Christ!

Was once ‘a clump of cells’!

So remember this December, at Christmas time

Remember this December the Unborn Child

If you don’t know where to turn

And you’re feeling desperate

Don’t let the BPAS kill your child

Don’t let the BPAS kill your child

Call the Good Counsel Network this Christmas time

If by some Miracle you like the song and want to show your appreciation, show your appreciation to Our Lady of Good Counsel and donate to the Good Counsel Network here.

In my head, this songs quite good but when I sing I think it it sounds appalling. I think it needs children to sing it. Preferably Catholic children. Preferably in front of an audience which includes the Bishops Conference of England and Wales. Well, we can dream!
