Christmas is Coming

The music to Christmas is Coming was composed by Edith Nesbit Bland in the late nineteenth century. The author of the lyrics is unknown but the popularity of this traditional Christmas song is handed down from generation to generation in the form of a nursery rhyme.

The words of Christmas is coming reflects the Christmas
festival of celebration of being a time of plenty
but that charity should be given to the less
fortunate according to the giver's means!

 

Christmas is Coming : Lyrics
 

Christmas is coming,
The geese are getting fat,
Please put a penny
In the old man's hat.

If you haven't got a penny,
A ha'penny will do, 
If you haven't got a ha'penny,
Then God bless you.

Christmas is Coming – lyrics
