• Christmas Drums: 

I heard the drums on Christmas day

Cacoph'nous, tympanic display 

Their noise entreats

With ideal replete

Of peace to us and death to them!

I thought of how this day once came

The Son of God in manger lain

To show the world

God's love unfurled 

Of peace on earth good will to men

Til bumping, thumping drums of old

Called Christendom, to caracole 

Promise of ease

With no bended knees

For peace to us and death to them!

From the darkness of those ages

Sluffed examples, broken paiges 

Pow'r was gained

And so was our fame

Now peace to us and death to them!

'Twas as if God ne'er had spoken

Had not lived out in the open

His will repined

His peace redefined

As peace to us and death to them!

In triumph, then, we raised our heads

"There is now peace on earth!" we said

For we have strength

Go to any length

For peace to us and death to them!

Then thumped the drums more loud and deep

God is not dead, he is asleep

In a manger 

Where lies danger

Our peace on earth, in Bethlehem
