Lyrics By the Lights of St. Stephen - Hiss Golden Messenger

By the Lights of St. Stephen

Joy and love and peace are here in this place
By your leave I will sing of the season
Christmas is past, Twelvetide is upon is
Winter was hard beyond reason
By the lights of St. Stephen
The king was well-dressed in the silks of the best
With his ribbons so gallantly streaming
And lo, thought he heard that lonesome little bird
My god, Virginny’s song is so pleasing
By the lights of St. Stephen
Is it a shadow, you’re lost alone and only hide from your demons
But the shadow was dark so long and only a mattr of see it
A little light was all we needed
Captain h heard that noble king’s word
He gathered his men for the doing
Gathered in green, a true rainbow of green
Well Ginny cried out, «Why must you do it?»
St. Stephen, I knew it
Is it a shadow, you’re lost alone and only hide from your demons
But the shadow was dark so long and only a matter of see it
A little light was all we needed
