After taking a few years off writing my (supposedly) annual "Christmas Card Carol," (because ... **blushes**... I didn't manage to send Christmas cards at all) I decided to try sending my Christmas greetings by e-mail, as I'm better with a computer than a pen. Most conveniently, this little lullaby sang itself to me at 4:30 one morning, and begged to be attached to just such an electronic greeting.
Songs meant for little children's ears are usually fun to compose, and this one was no exception. You need not study for words of four syllables--simple language is best, and the melody can be as sweet as you care to make it.
So with all my bests wishes for a wonderful holiday season, here is 2005's Christmas Card Carol. May your Christmas be filled with angel song. |
