Forest Nativity

Come into the world, my child Awake into life, my child Life is good, you will see Come into the world, my child All of us are here, awaiting you And the whole forest will burst into applause And leap for joy As soon as you are born The whole forest is expecting you You can see the panther wearing his finest coat And the lion, the king himself Wearing a brand new mane to welcome you Come into the world, my child Awake into life, my child Come into the world Don't be afraid of the wicked We have confined the wicked into a prison of scorn, of contempt From where they'll never escape The wicked will never trouble you Or make you unhappy Because we are here All of us Awaiting you Come into the world Awake into life, my child Come... The whole forest is expecting you
