《Christmas Is Now Drawing Near At Hand》歌词

[00:00:00] Christmas Is Now Drawing Near At Hand - Steve Winwood

[00:00:18] Christmas is now

[00:00:19] Drawing near at hand

[00:00:24] Come serve the Lord

[00:00:26] And be at his command

[00:00:30] And God a portion

[00:00:32] For you will provide

[00:00:36] And give a blessing

[00:00:38] To your soul beside

[00:00:42] Down in the garden

[00:00:44] Where flowers grow in ranks

[00:00:48] Down on your bended knees

[00:00:50] And give the Lord thanks

[00:00:54] Down on your knees

[00:00:56] And pray both night and day

[00:01:00] Leave off your sins

[00:01:02] And live upright I pray

[00:01:07] So proud and lofty is some sort of sin

[00:01:13] Which many take delight

[00:01:16] And pleasure in

[00:01:20] Whose conversation

[00:01:22] God doth not dislike

[00:01:25] And yet He shakes

[00:01:27] His sword before

[00:01:29] He strikes

[00:01:32] So proud and lofty

[00:01:33] Do some people go

[00:01:38] Dressing themselves

[00:01:39] Like players in the show

[00:01:44] They patch and paint

[00:01:46] And dress with idle stuff

[00:01:51] As if God had not

[00:01:52] Made them fine enough

[00:01:57] Even little children learn

[00:01:59] To curse and swear

[00:02:03] And can't recite one word of godly prayer

[00:02:10] Who'll teach them better

[00:02:12] Or teach them to rely

[00:02:16] On Christ the sinner's friend

[00:02:19] Who reigns on high
