Tom Flannery Christmas In Kigali
It's Christmas in Kigalithe children gather 'round
red on green is beautiful
when it's laid out on the ground
they sing thanks and praises to the Lord
because He loves them still
it's time to forget what they can see
still waiting in the hills
It's Christmas in Kigali
Washington sends their best
and France sends presents for the kids
with hopes for eternal rest
to those who could not be be here
to see the joyful scene
when the party is in full swing
you can't hear people scream
a silent night is filled with fright
there's celebration in Kigali tonight
It's Christmas in Kigali
holiest time of year
when the clouds they part and sun beams down
to dry the people's tears
when the ghost that walk this land
are blinded by the love
shown in this land of 1000 hills
from those who Lord above
a silent night is filled with fright
there's celebration in Kigali tonight
It's Christmas in Kigali
the children gather 'round
red on green is beautiful
when it's laid out on the ground
