[BIRDSONG, spoken]
A little louder, please

[ENSEMBLE]
Joy

[BIRDSONG, spoken]
With feeling

[ENSEMBLE]
Joy

The Christmas spirit

[ENSEMBLE]
Joy

[BIRDSONG, spoken]
That's better

[ENSEMBLE]
Come see the star
Come hear the bells
Come learn the tale
This night forever tells
Come one and all
From far and wide
Come know the joy
The joy, the joy
Come know the joy
Of Christmastide
[MARTHA]
Three wise men followed a star one night
To where glad bells were pealing

[ENSEMBLE]
Ah

[MARTHA]
And soon beheld the Holy Child
And all the shepherds kneeling

[ENSEMBLE]
Ah
Come see the star
Come hear the bells
Come learn the tale
This night forever tells
Come one and all
From far and wide
Come know the joy
The joy, the joy
Come know the joy
Of Christmastide
