All Together Now - Christmas in the Ark

Christmas is a time for us to come together
Like Noah and his sons and all the birds with feathers
Who sat down in the ark
And huddled in the dark
Until they got the Christmas tree to light
With candles that burned so very bright

All they had for music was the sound of raindrops
That poured out from the sky and tapped against the roof top
But then they had a thought
Let's turn this wretched spot
Into a place where we can sing with mirth
Anticipating our Messiah's birth

Go into the Ark you righteous man
Taking two of all that stands
Swims and floats and flaps their wings
And trust me for what tomorrow brings

Things may seem bleak as they now stand
But know the world is in my hand
I'll send my son to save mankind
He'll set free what sin does bind

At first the animals were as sad as rain clouds
They huddled in the corner under darkness' shroud
But then the Christmas songs
Showed them that they belonged
They came out to join festivities
Foreshadowing the nativity

Once they started singing, they felt free to dance and
Twirl around the ask as if God were present
To walk along beside
And he will be their guide
To lead them to the land of plentiful
Where bellies and wine presses are full

Go into the Ark you righteous man
Taking two of all that stands
Swims and floats and flaps their wings
And trust me for what tomorrow brings

Things may seem bleak as they now stand
But know the world is in my hand
I'll send my son to save mankind
He'll set free what sin does bind

The wise men were a witness
Christ was born and he is Christmas
