The Day That A Child Appeared
Version 1 is a studio recording, with piano and a cello(?) the only instrumentation
Note that the UK vinyl has a reversed stereo image compared to the US vinyl releases |
Version 2 uses (I believe) the same instrumental track as version 1, but a different vocal take
|
Version 3 is a 'home' recording of Larry performing the song with guitar rather than piano
|
lyrics version 1
I was thinking just last Sunday
How the world confuses one day
With the rest throughout the year
And that one day is the day that a child appeared
Just a baby in a manger
But the room was filled with strangers
And a star hung in the sky
Oh like an angel
On the day that a child appeared
Little children please remember
Why we celebrate December
It's much more than Santa Claus
But you're right about the gift and tree
A gift of life at Calvary
Ooh I was thinking just last Sunday
How the world confuses one day
With the rest throughout the year
Mmm-hmm-mmm
And that day is the day that a child appeared
How the world confuses one day
With the rest throughout the year
And that one day is the day that a child appeared
Just a baby in a manger
But the room was filled with strangers
And a star hung in the sky
Oh like an angel
On the day that a child appeared
Little children please remember
Why we celebrate December
It's much more than Santa Claus
But you're right about the gift and tree
A gift of life at Calvary
Ooh I was thinking just last Sunday
How the world confuses one day
With the rest throughout the year
Mmm-hmm-mmm
And that day is the day that a child appeared

lyrics version 3
I was thinking just last Sunday
How the world confuses may one day
With the rest throughout the year
And that one day is the day that a child appeared
??? one day [Spoken]
Just a baby in a manger
But the room was filled with strangers
And a star hung in the sky
Like an angel
On that day, day when a child appeared
Little children please remember
Why we celebrate December
It's much more than Santa Claus
But you're right about the gift and tree
The gift, the gift, the gift of life at Calvary
I was thinking just last Sunday
How can the world confuse that one day
With the rest throughout the year
And that one day is the day that a child appeared
How the world confuses may one day
With the rest throughout the year
And that one day is the day that a child appeared
??? one day [Spoken]
Just a baby in a manger
But the room was filled with strangers
And a star hung in the sky
Like an angel
On that day, day when a child appeared
Little children please remember
Why we celebrate December
It's much more than Santa Claus
But you're right about the gift and tree
The gift, the gift, the gift of life at Calvary
I was thinking just last Sunday
How can the world confuse that one day
With the rest throughout the year
And that one day is the day that a child appeared
