Track Name: Tim Constable and Dawn Williams - It could be True
They say the night is darkest just before the dawn
As the fears of the night are laid to rest
And all the stillness of the morning just begun
In the darkness is the promise of the sun
And so it is at the ending of another year
The decorations the busy streets the choir sings
Who do we tell.... of.... all the hopes and fears that Christmas brings?

It wasn’t long ago a time like this would be
More than a time to laze around and watch TV
Or get yourself too drunk at parties loud and wild
It was to celebrate the coming of a Child
A precious gift to rescue us from our fallen ways
A Royal King with a promise of some better days
To bring us love... hope..... joy and brotherhood to all mankind

“GLORY TO GOD ON HIGH
WITH PEACE IN THE HEARTS OF MEN”
THEY SAY A HOST OF ANGELS SANG
A WORD FOR ME AND YOU
COULD IT ALL BE TRUE’?

Ever wondered what true love is all about?
Looking good and scoring high with all your friends?
Then if it fades, run away to someone new
To see if you prefer the things that they can do?
Is there a way love can hold together come what may?
Is there a way love can last for all eternity?
Is there a way.... we..... too can hear the angels once again?

”GLORY TO GOD ON HIGH
WITH PEACE IN THE HEARTS OF MEN”
THEY SAY A HOST OF ANGELS SANG
A WORD FOR ME AND YOU
COULD IT ALL BE TRUE?
Track Name: A Saviour Born
These lyrics are inspired by my belief in the Biblical teachings that a) Jesus's birth was NOT in the middle of winter, but end of September/early October (e.g. in mid-winter, sheep would have been in barns, not out on hills!) and b) that the Magi visited him when he was about 2 years old (shortly before the flight to Egypt) (e. g. they went to his HOUSE (not a rough barn) - and of course, there may well have been more than three!

PERILOUS TIMES SURROUNDED THE HARVEST
ENEMY KINGS DICTATED THE RULES
WANTING A COUNT OF ALL THE PEOPLE
PUT IT DOWN ON FOREIGN SCROLLS

A MOTHER GAVE BIRTH TO A BOY CHILD
IN A STABLE, SMELLY AND ROUGH
A PRECIOUS KING ARRIVED SO HUMBLY
BEDDED DOWN IN A FEEDING TROUGH

A SAVIOUR BORN A KING TO DIE
DYING FOR ALL AND THEN TO RISE
AND RISE AGAIN BEYOND THE SKY
A HOPE FOR ALL FOR YOU AND I

TWO YEARS LATER ASTROLOGERS CAME
TO BRING THEM WEALTH AND PROPHETIC PERFUME
A MESSAGE CAME TO FLEE TO AFRICA
BEFORE THE SLAUGHTER OF THOSE BACK HOME

WHEN HE GREW UP, THE MIRACLES STARTED
HEALING THOSE HE CAME TO SAVE
TEACHING TO LOVE THE REJECTED AND HATED
SCORNING RELIGION, EMPTYING GRAVES

FOLLOWED BY THOUSANDS, LOVE BY THE LOWLY
CHALLENGING ALL HYPOCRISY
KILLED ON A CROSS, BURIED, ABANDONED
TIL HE ROSE FROM THE GRAVE
YES HE ROSE FROM THE GRAVE

A SAVIOUR BORN A KING TO DIE
DYING FOR ALL AND THEN TO RISE
AND RISE AGAIN BEYOND THE SKY
A HOPE FOR ALL FOR YOU AND I

CENTURIES PASSED, THE MESSAGE CONTINUED
BRING HOPE TO ALL WHO WOULD HEAR
MAYBE ATTACKED, MAYBE DISTORTED
BUT SALVATION RINGING CLEAR

THOSE ENEMY KINGS ARE BACK ONCE MORE
SPREADING TERROR, THE GODLESS RULE
SO FEED ON THE ONE BORN INTO A FEED TROUGH
THAT WE HOPE TO SEE AGAIN SOON

A SAVIOUR BORN A KING TO DIE
DYING FOR ALL AND THEN TO RISE
AND RISE AGAIN BEYOND THE SKY
A HOPE FOR ALL FOR YOU AND I
