Luyện nghe bài hát The Gift

A poor orphan girl named
Was to market one day
She stopped for a by the roadside
a bird with a broken wing lay
A few passed till she saw it
For feathers were covered with sand
But clean and wrapped it was travelling
In the warmth of small hand

She gave her last peso
On a made of rushes and twine
She fed it loose from the market
And watched it grow stronger with

Now the Christmas Eve was coming
And the church shone tinsel and light
And all of the townfolks presents
To lay by the manger night
There diamonds and incense
And
In packages fit for a
But for one ragged in a small cage
had nothing to bring

She waited till just midnight
So no one see her go in
And crying she knelt by the
For her gift was of Him

Then a voice spoke to her the darkness
Maria, what you to me
If the bird in the cage is offering
the door and let me see
Though she trembled, she did as He her
And out of the cage the flew
Soaring up the rafters
On a wing that had good as new

Just then the midnight bells out
And the little started to sing
A song that no words could
Whose was fit for a king

Now Maria felt blessed to listen
To that cascade of sweet and long
As her was lifted to heaven
By the first nightingale's song
