Guess the Christmas Carol #2

"I saw Three Ships"......................but you didn't take these on Christmas Day in the Morning..!!

A (Christmas) cracker of a collage..............excellent choice of photos, and a great idea for a project. I'm expecting more..........

certainly not on Christmas Day in the morning - the sunshine rather gives it away!

well guessed, you win today's carrot!

Oooh thank you but I've had my carrots for today.............can I donate it to Rabbit?

wieder was hier nicht bekanntes, aber sehr schön ist es

niraK, it's an English Christmas carol from the 17th or 18th century. There are several slightly different versions of the words - here is one version:

I saw three ships come sailing in
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
I saw three ships come sailing in
On Christmas Day in the morning.

And what was in those ships all three,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day?
And what was in those ships all three,
On Christmas Day in the morning?

The Virgin Mary and Christ were there,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
The Virgin Mary and Christ were there,
On Christmas Day in the morning.

Pray, wither sailed those ships all three,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
Pray, wither sailed those ships all three,
On Christmas Day in the morning?

O they sailed into Bethlehem,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
O they sailed into Bethlehem,
On Christmas Day in the morning.

And all the bells on earth shall ring,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
And all the bells on earth shall ring,
On Christmas Day in the morning.

And all the Angels in Heaven shall sing,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
And all the Angels in Heaven shall sing,
On Christmas Day in the morning.

And all the souls on earth shall sing,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
And all the souls on earth shall sing,
On Christmas Day in the morning.

Then let us all rejoice again,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
Then let us all rejoice again,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
