[00:00:00] The Christmas Spirit - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)

[00:00:00] Written by：Johnny Cash

[00:00:00] Praises sing to Christ the king

[00:00:06] And peace to men on earth

[00:00:16] On Christmas Eve

[00:00:18] I dreamed I traveled all around earth

[00:00:21] In my dream

[00:00:22] I saw and heard the ways the different people

[00:00:26] Hail the king

[00:00:28] Whose star shone in the east

[00:00:31] And what a dream it was

[00:00:38] In London town

[00:00:40] I walked around piccadilly circus

[00:00:43] A mass of people movin' here and there

[00:00:46] I wandered where

[00:00:48] On every face at every place was

[00:00:51] Hurry up I'm late

[00:00:53] But a kind old man at a chestnut stand said

[00:00:57] Merry Christmas mate

[00:00:59] And I felt the Christmas spirit

[00:01:10] In a little town nestled down in

[00:01:13] Bavaria germany

[00:01:16] I walked along to see

[00:01:18] What the feeling there would be

[00:01:21] And here again was the busy din

[00:01:24] The rushin'

[00:01:25] The yellin'

[00:01:26] But some kind boy said

[00:01:29] Frohliche weihnachten

[00:01:31] Not undesratnding the words but

[00:01:33] Gettin' the buyin' and sellin'

[00:01:36] I felt the Christmas spirit

[00:02:06] In Bethlehem

[00:02:07] I heard a hymn

[00:02:09] Some distant choir sang

[00:02:12] And with other tourists

[00:02:13] I walked along to a Church

[00:02:15] As it's bells rang

[00:02:18] Then I heard someone tell someone

[00:02:20] There's where Christ was born

[00:02:23] I wonder if he

[00:02:24] Looked like our baby looked on that first morn

[00:02:29] And then I really felt the Christmas spirit

[00:02:40] From a businessman in the holy land

[00:02:43] As a sidewalk souvenirshop

[00:02:46] I bought a little Bible

[00:02:48] Since I'd hardly stopped

[00:02:51] And it was in Paris France

[00:02:54] Somehow by chance that I took the Bible out

[00:02:58] And as I flipped the pages I saw these words

[00:03:01] And I knew what it was all about for I read

[00:03:04] Fear not

[00:03:05] For behold I bring you good tidings of great joy

[00:03:09] Which shall be to all people

[00:03:12] For unto you he was born this day

[00:03:14] In the city of David a saviour

[00:03:16] Which is Christ

[00:03:18] The Lord

[00:03:32] Then I took the little holy book

[00:03:35] Held it close and tight

[00:03:38] I closed my eyes and visualized the glory of that night

[00:03:42] So suddenly it came to me

[00:03:45] For when I awoke on Christmas day

[00:03:47] I felt the Christmas spirit

[00:03:50] Down

[00:03:51] Deep inside

[00:03:53] To stay

[00:04:01] O little town of Bethlehem

[00:04:08] How still we see thee lie

[00:04:14] Above thy deep and dreamless sleep

[00:04:21] The silent stars go by

[00:04:28] Yet in thy dark streets shineth

[00:04:34] The everlasting light

[00:04:39] The hopes and fears of all the years

[00:04:47] Are met in thee tonight
