December |
December is the cruellest month |
but this year for once my cheeks are warm |
After long years in the wilderness |
I’m ready for the storm |
Let them throw all their cannonballs |
let all their strong men come |
I’m ready to go anywhere |
through venom, sick and scum |
December isn’t always cold |
This year she’s mine and I know why |
Somewhere a flower has to grow |
for every flower that dies |
I’m stricken with fever |
but my heart is strong as steel |
I’m ready to go anywhere |
I can believe! |
I can feel! |
December is a trusted friend |
I always recognise her face |
It’s a plague of fools thrown aside forever |
by her soft and silent grace |
She is reckless as a mayday |
gentle as a stone |
and ready to go anywhere |
to carry me back home |
December fell deep in the bleak midwinter time |
when Jesus Christ howled a saviour baby’s howl |
a primal truth as pure as ice |
And though we crucified him on a cross |
and dragged his words from prayer to curse |
He was able to go anywhere |
He was almost one of us |
