Catholic Family of 8 from Our Lady of Lincoln Parish, Lincoln, have written, performed and professionally recorded a song which will be available on iTunes and Amazon (£0.99) in time for Advent.
Christmas is Coming (Our Saviour is Born), is a song which promises to uplift people and bring hope in these strange times and despite the talk of Christmas being cancelled due to covid, Christmas IS Coming!
Euan (13) plays Cello and Trombone on the track, Leo (12) Drums and Violin, Pearce (9) Viola, Vincent (8) Violin and the youngest Edith & Micah (5&3) on glockenspiels. Mum, Fiona sings lead vocals and plays piano, while Dad, Mark, also took part playing the tubular bells adding to the Christmas feel of the song.
“We want the song to remind people of the real reason for the season, Jesus is our Saviour”. As well as spreading some good cheer, with every download The Braddish family will be raising money for March for Life. You can follow them on twitter & facebook for up to date information and photos @BraddishFamily

Lyrics to the Song:
Christmas is Coming
He came down on earth
Christmas is Coming
Our Lady gave birth
And a Saviour was born
And our Saviours is born
It’s cold outside it’s winter time
Home inside all wam
Thinking of the ones I love
Babies unborn
Those who have hurt you
Those long gone
Those you wish to see
Where’s this love from?
He brings Hope
Wrapping gifts for family
Tying up the bow
Open our eyes to poverty
Let your love show
So much to prepare
So much to do
So much Love I have
It’s all for You
He gives Faith
Christmas lights all twinkling
Bringing so much cheer
Think of Baby Jesus Christ
Stop all this fear
Touch one another
Touch their hearts
Bringing together
Not apart
He is Love
