John Rutter The Colours of Christmas song lyrics

green for the ivy that's grow by the wall

white for the miseltoe that hangs in the hall

red for the berries that shine in the snow

orange and yellow for mornings first grow

these are the colours of christmas of christmas

let them shine all over the earth

these are the colours of happiness

the joy oof a new baby's birth

blue for the robe of his mother so mild

gold for the precious gift they brought to the child

silver the starlight to shine through your sleep

and a rainbow for all the sweep dreams you will keep

these are the colours of christmas

let them shine all over the earth

these are the colours of happiness

the joy of a news baby's birth

blue for the robe of his mother so mild

gold for the precious gift they brought to the child

silver the starlight to shine trought your sleep

and a rainbow for all the sweep dreams

you will keep
