O LITTLE PERSON WONDER CHILD is another Protest sort-of Christmas Carol...not totally uplifting, I must admit...but still, from the heart....as we overpopulate our small and wonderful Blue/Green/Brown Planet...I think a great deal about the babies...cryin' their first minutes into this world: deservin' this world and us...we needin' to do right by them, since they're here...so, this is my Song for them and their Folks...bless their Great Needs with Great Gifts of Life in some abundance: Help them to get Enough for themselves and their Families...in honorable and humane ways....

O LITTLE PERSON WONDER CHILD

CHORUS

O Little Person Wonder Child
Holdin' to your tiny hand
Brings tears to your people's eyes
Brings hope All can understand
______________

Everywhere there's babies bornin'
Into stalls and swaddled tight
Against hate and hunger - anger -
'Gainst each dark and war-filled night...

Everywhere there's angels singin'
About Hope and Love and such:
Everywhere the Mamas cryin'
Beggin' for their kids so much

That the halls of heaven are opened
And poor shepherds on the hill
Look up at the rouge star wonderin'
How they're supposed to do God's will

When they have no food, poor water -
Not even a hand of earth -
Expected still to live and die there
For the sad lands of their birth...

So sing your alleluias softly
Every babe's a queen, a king:
On this Christmas Night remember:
When you give: Give everything....

CHORUS
