Words to Australian carol called 'Christmas Day' by John Wheeler?

Answer 1

"Christmas Day"

The north wind is tossing the leaves,

The red dust is over the town;

The sparrows are under the eaves,

And the grass in the paddocks is brown;

And we lift up our voices and sing

To the Christ-Child, the Heavenly King.

The tree-ferns in green gullies sway;

The cool stream flows silently by:

The joy-bells are greeting the day,

And the chimes are adrift in the sky,

As we lift up our voices and sing

To the Christ-Child, the Heavenly King. (JWheeler)
