The Moon Shines Bright

Traditional

The moon shines bright and the stars give a light
In a little while it will be day
Our Lord, our God, He calls upon us all
And bids us awake and pray

So dear, so dear Christ loved us
And for our sins got slain
I'd have you to leave all your wicked, wicked ways
And turn to the Lord again

For the life of a man it is but a span
And he flourishes like a flower
For he's here today, tomorrow he is gone
And dead all in an hour

Now the clock strikes one, it's time we were gone
No longer to tarry here
God bless you all, both great and small
And send you a happy New Year
