The Sixth Day of Christmas: Jamie Barton sings "Jessye's Carol"

This Christmas Carol was written for world renowned opera star and Georgian Jessye Norman. Here our own Armuchee girl, Jamie Barton, another world renowned opera star sings it with the Atlanta Master Chorale.

Here are the lyrics: 

This Christmastide (Jessye's Carol)

Green and silver, red and gold, and a story born of old
Truth and love and hope abide this Christmastide, this Christmastide

Holly, ivy, mistletoe, and the gently falling snow
Truth and love and hope abide this Christmastide, this Christmastide

From a simple ox's stall came the greatest gift of all
Truth and love and hope abide this Christmastide, this Christmastide

Children sing of peace and joy at the birth of one small boy
Truth and love and hope abide this Christmastide, this Christmastide

Let the bells ring loud and clear, ring out now for all to hear
Truth (truth and) and love (love and) and hope (hope) abide (bide) this Christmastide, this Christmastide

Trumpets sound and voices raises in an endless stream of praise
Truth and love and hope abide this Christmastide, this Christmastide

Green and silver, red and gold, and a story born of old
Peace and love and hope abide this Christmastide, this Christmastide
