The lyrics are to a song in which a dreamer imagines a conversation with Archangel Gabriel about the first Christmas.

Anyone who has any question about this as a song and not just poetry form; or any other questions, please feel free to pm/start a conversation with me.
Merry Christmas to all; anyone observing any other holiday, appropriate holiday greetings and wishes to you as well
As they said in my generation, peace and love....

I wonder, I wonder
Dreamed a thought that imagined and came from afar
(a)bout Jesus and Christmas and Bethlehem’s star
I say, I said
Who can tell me, what does it mean?
on redeeming mankind, God would be so keen
Then
I heard, I heard
Arc(h)angel Gabriel’s voice came alive
take heed what he said, this is no jive
He said
Yes there was a star, one never had been so such raised
til on that first Christmas, God’s name be thus praised.
It was pretty much like any other star, really...
Oh but from
high in God’s heaven
high in God’s heaven
high in God’s heaven
high in God’s heaven
oh so high in God’s heaven, earth saw this bright ray
Jesus was now born this first Christmas Day
I say, I said
wow, what a picture this puts in my mind
How serve I the Lord, Who to us is so kind?
And in reply, he said, “Remember”
And now, as always
Millennia later, it’s still Christmas Day, all of creation it pauses from play
Arc(h)angels and choir they lead us and pray
sing behold,
sing behold
sing behold now the Christ child
born with us this day
Then yes, I awoke Good Gabe he was gone
And so, and so
In closing I have just one thing to say
Remember this story
Remember this story
every Christmas Day

I believe the word is shalom.
We are all God's children.

btw, SNL has a Christmas Special, and I think there is a segment in Claymation or something similar, with Darlene Love vocals, singing -- I think the title is -- "Christmastime for the Jews".
Funny stuff.

Merry Christmas, my Rangers brothers and sisters, for better or worse, richer or poorer. We don't always see eye to eye on things about the team, but I know that it's never with bad intentions. Surely, it comes from the passion we have for our team. So, let's not be enemies. Let's not let our emotions go too far and personal. We're on the same side.
