lyrics

Candle flame is burning while the cruel world keeps turning
You know peace has come at Christmas though it doesn’t feel that way

A flickering of light is for the longest of the nights
As winter solstice beckons Christmas the nights seem set to drag

You know I will hope this Christmas
As the light has dawned
Though the shadows seem to creep and the wound of the world is deep
You know it from the inside out, you know it, O Emmanuel

The fire should be roaring but it feels like just an ember
The twinkling of Christmas lights is nothing but vain fun

The holy night, the silent light was always a humble venture
It’s small but strong and one the darkness cannot overcome

You know I will hope this Christmas
As the light has dawned
Though the shadows seem to creep and the wound of the world is deep
You know it from the inside out, you know it, O Emmanuel
