I Saw Three Ships
I saw three ships come sailing in,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day,
I saw three ships come sailing in,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
And who was in those ships all three?
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day,
And who was in those ships all three?
On Christmas Day in the morning.
Our Saviour Christ and Mother Mary,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day,
Our Saviour Christ and His Lady,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
Pray whither sailed those ships all three?
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day,
Over land and on the sea
On Christmas Day in the morning.
Oh, they sailed into Bethlehem,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day,
The breath of God, it carried them,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
Let all the angels in heaven sing,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day,
While every bell on earth shall ring,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
Let every living soul rejoice,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day,
And join together with one voice,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
Then let us all give thanks again,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day,
Then let us all give thanks, amen,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
On Christmas Day in the morning.
