The Little Town of Bethlehem is not celebrating
It was the first to be hit by a virus so invading
Tourists carried it during a flourishing season
Causing a complete lockdown of all the region.
Easter has gone and now it's Christmas time
It's getting worse and the virus is in its prime
The Christmas tree stands lonely in the square
No choirs or pilgrims, a scene so sad and rare
With the news of the vaccine, hope is rising
Holding onto hope for us is not surprising
Hope has been the secret of our surviving
Despite the occupation ever so brutalizing
As we face this monster of a pandemic altogether
The least we can do is to be kind to each other
May the spirit of Christmas continue to prevail
And may justice, peace and liberation tip the scale
