Luyện nghe bài hát The Gift

A poor girl named Maria
Was to market one day
She stopped for to rest by the
Where a bird a broken wing lay

A few moments passed she saw it
For it's feathers covered with sand
But soon clean and it
Was traveling in the warmth of Maria's small

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

Now the Christmas Eve service was
And the church shone with tinsel and
And all of the town brought presents
To lay by the manger night

There were diamonds and
And in packages fit for a king
But for one ragged in a small cage
Maria had to bring

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

Then the Lord spoke to her through the
"Maria, brings you to me
If the bird in the cage is your
the door and let me see"

she trembled, she did as He ask her
And out of the the bird flew
Soaring up into the
On a wing that had healed as new

Just the midnight bells rang out
And the little bird to sing
A song that no words recapture
Whose beauty was fit for a

Now felt blessed just to listen
To cascade of notes sweet and long
As her offering was lifted to
By the first nightingale's song
