Fear not The Way to receive On this lovely Christmas Eve For The Light of the World has come To still the darkness and render it numb. Fear not The Truth to admire With carols of joy that inspire For Christ was born in a manger To help goodness vanquish all danger. Fear not to The Life to pay heed By aiding and respecting the ones in need For Jesus was born on Christmas Day To give virtue the courage to have some say.
