Christingle Hymn:

When the frost turns

the berries red

 

1

When the frost turns the berries red
Just before Christmas time,
When the robin wears breast of red
In the cold mid winter time,
Then I jump up and down with joy
And I shout Hip! Hip! Hooray!
And I thank Lord Jesus Christ who came
To earth on Christmas Day
.

2

When the time comes to share the toys
From the Christmas tree tall,
When the Star shines on girls and boys
Heaven's here for one and all,
Then I jump up and down for joy
And I shout Hip! Hip! Hooray!
And I thank Lord Jesus Christ who came
To earth on Christmas Day.

3

When we bring our gifts to God
We will gladden his heart,
When we call other folks to God
We shall never be apart.
And we'll jump up and down with joy
And we'll shout Hip! Hip! Hooray!
And we'll thank Lord Jesus Christ who came
To the earth on Christmas day.
