Song language: English
The Hope of Christmas |
| Take me back to eight years old |
| The little church on a dead-end road |
| With a candle flicker in one hand and Dad’s hand in the other |
| Take me back to Silent Night |
| My heart was full and the world was right |
| ‘Cause right now the world looks nothing like those innocent Decembers |
| These days peace on earth is hard to find |
| And I need you to remind me one more time |
| You’re still the hope of Christmas |
| You’re still the light when th world looks dark |
| You’re still the hope of Christmas |
| And You’r still the hope of my heart |
| Watch the snowflakes falling down |
| Like a blanket on this town |
| For a moment we can hardly see the pain this year has brought us |
| May the sick find healing’s touch |
| May hatred’s fight be won with love |
| And may every heart make room for you the One who came to save us |
| You’re still the hope of Christmas |
| You’re still the light when the world looks dark |
| You’re still the hope of Christmas |
| And You’re still the hope of my heart |
| I bowed my head to pray tonight |
| Felt my little girl by my side |
| She slipped her tiny hand in mine |
| And we both talked to You |
| And it took me back to eight years old |
| My daddy’s hand and a story told |
| About Heaven’s love in a manger low |
| And a promise that’s still true |
| You’re still the hope of Christmas |
| You’re still the light when the world looks dark |
| You’re still the hope of Christmas |
| And You’re still the hope of my heart |
