Claire is the lyricist and she asked me to take a shot at providing the melody/music/vocals. This was unusual for me because I'm usually the lyricist looking for collaborators to provide the music end! Anyway, it was a challenge for me but it was lots of fun...

V1
Lovely music / comes from heaven again
Brings me joy / deep within
The music makes / it very clear
The new born Baby / Jesus is here
CH
I can hear a choir / singing
From / up above
It sings about / Jesus'
unconditional love
He came down / as a baby
When time / he shed his blood
To save us all / from a life of sin
now that's / true love
I can hear a choir / singing
I can hear a choir / singing
V2
When God takes me / home to heaven
He'll reveal / to me then
The wonders of / life's mysteries
Which often have / baffled me
CH
I can hear a choir / singing
From / up above
It sings about / Jesus'
unconditional love
He came down / as a baby
When time / he shed His blood
To save us all / from a life of sin
Now that's / true love
I can hear a choir / singing
I can hear a choir / singing
