Luyện nghe bài hát The Christmas Guest

It one day near December's end
Two neighbors called on an old
And they found his shop so and lean
Made gay with a thousand bows of
And Conrad was sittin' face ashined
When he suddenly stopped as he a twine
And he said "Oh at dawn today
When the cock was crowin' the night
The appeared in a dream to me
And said 'I'm comin' your to be.'
So I've been busy with astir
And my shop with branches of fir
The table is and the kettle is shined
And the rafters the holly is twined
Now wait for my Lord to appear
And closely so I will hear His step
As He my humble place
And I'll the door and look on His face"
So his went home and left Conrad alone
For was the happiest day he'd known
For long since his family had passed
And Conrad had spent a sad Christmas day
But he knew with the Lord as his Christmas
This Christmas would be the dearest and
So he listened with joy in his heart
And with every sound he would with a start
And for the Lord to be at his door
Like the vision he'd had a few hours
So he ran to the after hearin' a sound
But all he see on the snow-covered ground
Was a shabby who's shoes were torn
And all of his were ragged and worn
But Conrad was and he went to the door
And he said "You know, your feet be frozen and sore
I have some shoes in my for you
And a coat that'll you warmer too"
So with grateful heart, the man away
But noticed the time of day
And wondered what made the so late
And how much longer have to wait
When he a knock he ran to the door
But it was only a once more
A bent ol' lady a shawl of black
With a bundle of kindlin' on her back
She for only a place to rest
But that was reserved for Conrad's guest
But her seemed to plead "Don't send me away
Let me for awhile on Christmas day"
So Conrad brewed her a cup
And her to sit at the table and sup
But after she left he was filled with
For he saw that the hours slippin' away
And the hadn't come as He said He would
And Conrad felt sure he'd
When out of the stillness he a cry
"Please help me, and me where am I!"
So he opened his friendly door
And stood disappointed as twice
It was only a who'd wandered away
And was from her family on Christmas day
Again, Conrad's was heavy and sad
But he knew he should make the girl glad
So he her in and he wiped her tears
And quieted all her childish
Then he led her to her home once more
But as he his own darkened door
He knew the Lord was not today
For the hours of Christmas had away
So he to his room and he knelt down to pray
And he "Dear Lord, why did You delay?
What kept You from comin' to on me?
For I so much Your Face to see"
When in the silence, a voice he heard
"Lift up your head, for I kept my
Three times my shadow crossed floor
And times I came to your lonely door
I was the begger bruised, cold feet
And I was the you gave somethin' to eat
I was the child on the street.
Three times I and three times I came in
And each I found the warmth of a friend
Of all the gifts love is the
And I was honored to be your guest."
