Christmas Hits - A Spaceman Came Travelling Lyrics

A spaceman came traveling on his ship from afar
'Twas light years of time since his mission did start
And over a village, he halted his craft
And it hung in the sky like a star, just like a star

He followed a light and came down to a shed
Where a mother and child were lying there on a bed
A bright light of silver shone round his head
And he had the face of an angel
And they were afraid

And it went la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la, la la la la la la la la la
Peace and goodwill to all men
And love for the child
La la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la
Ohh

This lovely music went trembling through the ground
And many were awakened on hearing that sound
And travelers on the road
The village they found
Of the light of that ship in the sky
Which shone all around
And just before dawn at the paling of the sky
The stranger returned and said, "Now I must fly"
When two thousand years of your time has gone by
This song will begin once again
To a baby's cry
And it went

La la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la
This song will begin once again
To a baby's cry

And it goes
La la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la
Peace and goodwill to all men
And love for the child

And it went
La la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la
This song will begin once again
To a baby's cry

Oh the whole world is waiting

La la la la la la la la la (waiting to hear the song again)
La la la la la la la (there are thousands standing on the edge of the world)
La la la la la la la la la (and a star is moving somewhere, the time is nearly here)

(This song will begin once again)
(to a baby's cry)
