BLESSING OF THE CRÈCHE

Soon, yes soon come angels shining
shining on God’s birthing place.
Joseph, may it be a bright place,
a holy space, a warm place.
Bright our wishes for you Father,
as we dance our angel ring.

Soon, yes soon come shepherds running
running to God’s birthing place.
Mary, may it be a warm place,
a holy space, a warm place.
Warm our wishes for you Mother,
as we dance our shepherd ring.

Soon, yes soon come Magi kneeling,
kneeling at God’s birthing place.
Jesus may it be a safe place,
a holy space, a safe place.
Safe our wishes for you Baby,
as we dance our magus ring
