Christmas Carol for the city of Victoria, Australia to combat their ban on Christmas and alert Queen Elizabeth, posted by me Gloria Poole,RN,artist, author, blogger, photographer of Missouri, USA

I am posting this song "Once in royal David's city" because it is one of the specific songs banned by the Education Minister of Australia. Since Australia is part of the Christian British Empire, including its Commonwealth, I am appealing to Elizabeth Regina II, The Queen of the United Kingdom to intervene for Christian children in Australia. The Queen is "The defender of the Christian faith" and I appeal to her to help save Christianity in Australia. Here are the words of the song about Jesus that the Andrews government of Australia have banned along with other songs about Christianity:

Christmas Hymn:
"Once in Roy-al Da-vid's city stood a lowly
cattle shed, where a mother laid her ba- by
in a man- ger for his bed; Mary was that
mother- er mild, Je- sus Christ her little child.

He came down to earth from heaven, Who is GOD and
Lord of all; And His shelter was a stable,
And His cradle was a stall; With the poor, and
mean, and lowly, Lived on earth our Saviour Holy.

And our eyes at last shall see Him, through His own re-
deem-ing love; for that child so dear and gentle
Is our LORD in heaven a- bove, And He leads His
children on To the place where He is gone. "

Written by Cecil Frances Alexander who lived from 1818-1895 and the music was written by Henry J. Gauntlett, who lived from 1805-1876. The Bible references for this song are from Luke 2:4-7 & 11-12. The beat of the music is set to 69-84 [on metronome ] . I sang this simple song easy enough by setting the beat on the metronome. It is a perfect song for children to sing.


Here are the details that were emailed to me about the event in Australia, and I received this email yesterday.


Victoria, Australia's Education Minister banned Christmas carols from public schools with quote : "Of course, the government hasn’t banned all Christmas carols, just those that refer to God. So while drab, contemporary Christmas songs such as Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer will be spared, the traditional carols — those that drip with a rich Christmas spirit — such as Once in Royal David’s City, Hark! The Herald Angels Sing and O Come, All Ye Faithful are verboten in Victorian public schools. But it’s far bigger than all that. This is a cultural turning point. The Victorian government isn’t just banning Christmas carols; this is an attempt to strip away the meaning of Christmas. It’s an overt attack on one of the most significant events in the Christian calendar.


The decision goes to the heart of good education. Christmas, and all the ceremony and custom associated with it, has been a significant religious and cultural ritual for 1700 years. A ban on these traditions is a denial of our history. Suppressing aspects of the Christmas celebration denies a cultural heritage that has formed the basis of Western civilisation and that underpins our understanding of life and liberty.


A well-rounded education should include lessons on Christianity and its contribution to who we are today. We can’t expect the next generation to defend the values of Western civilisation if they don’t know what they are."


Of course, I am Christian, the Southern Baptist/Great Commission sort of Christian who believes the words of JESUS, as He spoke them after HE had risen from the dead and just prior to His ascending to heaven:


"And JESUS came and spake unto them, saying, 'all power is given unto Me in heaven and earth; go ye therefore and TEACH ALL NATIONS, baptizing them in THE NAME OF THE FATHER, and of THE SON, and of THE HOLY GHOST; teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you, and Lo! I AM with you alway, even unto the end of the world. " Matthew 28:18-20,KJV.


I am doing what I can to teach Australia the good news that there is a Saviour and His name is Jesus, according to like chapter 2 in Holy Bible. I posted the words of most of Luke chapter 2 on another blog of mine at : https://words-that-work-LLP.blogspot.com, and I urge all to read them. The Bible is not copyrighted but my words, art I make and photos I photograph are copyrighted.
