The Minister's Hibernation Song

After Advent calendars, carol practices, nativity chaos, services and many biscuits, even Church ministers need a rest! This light-hearted song celebrates the very human tiredness that comes after Christmas, and the joy of hibernating for a wee while once it’s all done. ---------------------- Lyrics: [Verse 1] Advent calendars. Chocolates gone. Early mornings. Nights go so long. Carol practice. Lights won’t now work, Nativity shows at the Kirk. Sermons written. Biscuits are shared, Running here, and then running there, By Christmas Eve they’re wide awake, Kept going with coffee and cake! [Chorus] They’re tired, tired, tired, that’s very true, From Christmas things they had to do. When Christmas Day has come and gone, They will hibernate on and on. Snore, snore, snore, the rest is so deep. The minister’s gone for a sleep! [Verse 2] Shepherds, angels, and donkeys too, Creations made with card and glue. Carol after carol have been sung, They’ve heard them all — yes, every one! Handshakes and smiles, “Nice service, ta!”, Cotton wool sheep that all go “Baa!” But Boxing Day, they have gone, Vanished before the kettle’s on. [Chorus] They’re tired, tired, tired, that’s very true, From Christmas things they had to do. When Christmas Day has come and gone, They will hibernate on and on. Snore, snore, snore, the rest is so deep. The minister’s gone for a sleep! [Verse 3] Pyjamas on by half past ten, Socks don’t match – who really cares then? Phone on silent. Curtains are shut, Still in yesterday’s jumper, but … God made rest, that is in the plan. Ministers are like each human. So if you knock and hear a snore, They are just dreaming more and more. [Chorus] They’re tired, tired, tired, that’s very true, From Christmas things they had to do. When Christmas Day has come and gone, They will hibernate on and on. Snore, snore, snore, the rest is so deep. The minister’s gone for a sleep! [Outro] But don’t you worry, don’t you fear, They’ll be back soon in the New Year… (c) Christmas Song Videos part of Light Valley Music 2025
