Finding Christmas

looks like the cold is coming round quieting all earthly sounds
every watch has gone unwound slowed by winter’s whitest shroud
the season has arrived again just in time to remind
put up the tree and string the lights
to guide us through the darkest nights gather round to sing the songs
of forgiveness, hope, and love
the season will subside
the spirit kept alive any time you like
don’t need no boxes wrapped in silver bows don’t need no falling flake of snow
don’t need no tinsel in the windows
got all we need here in the glow
don’t need no sleigh bells or no reindeer to find some Christmas in the year

It’s Christmas time
people singing of a heavenly peace
It’s Christmas
time to remember all the ones we need
with angels singing of a glory on high there’s music in the valley tonight star of wonder lighting up the sky
to celebrate this Holy night
It’s Christmas time
to remember all the love we’ve known It’s Christmas time
where we wonder at a babe in straw
with angels singing of a glory on high there’s music in the valley tonight star of wonder lighting up the sky
to celebrate this Holy night
when the branches are bowing low
with the weight of a heavy load
our finest hopes in silver and gold
there’s always a part of me
that believes in the mystery
of a peace so improbably near
It’s Christmas time
to remember all the love we’ve known It’s Christmas time
where we wonder at a babe in straw

Noel, Noel

The First Noel, the angels did say
was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep
On a cold winter's night that was so deep
They looked up and saw a star
Shining in the East beyond them far
And to the earth it gave great light
And so it continued both day and night
This star drew nigh to the northwest
O'er Bethlehem it took its rest
And there it did both pause and stay
Right o'er the place where Jesus lay
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
Then let us all with one accord
Sing praises to our heavenly Lord
That hath made Heaven and earth of nought
And with his blood mankind has bought

Christmas Song
04:33
|

|
he was his girl; he was her boyfriend
She’d be his wife; take him as her husband
A surprise on the way any day, any day
one healthy little giggling baby boy
The wise men came, three made their way
To shower him with love while he lay in the hay
to shower him with love love love
to shower him with love love love
to shower him with love love, is all around
So I’m told, so the story goes
the people he knew were less than golden hearted
Gamblers and robbers, drinkers and jokers
all soul searchers, like you and me, just like you and me
Searching for love, love, love
searching for love, love, love
all searching for love love, is all around
When Jesus Christ was nailed to his tree
said "oh, Daddy-o I see how it all soon will be
Father up above
in all of this hatred will you fill them with love”
fill them with love, love, love
fill them with love, love love
fill us with love love, is all around

Silent Night

Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace
Silent night, holy night!
Shepherds quake at the sight
Glories stream from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia!
Christ, the Saviour is born
Christ, the Saviour is born
Silent night, holy night
Son of God, love's pure light
Radiant beams from Thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth

Oh What Night
03:46
|
|||
|
oh come quickly now
there’s a star cut through the cloud who wears her glory bright
cast the darkness from our sight bowing low unto the child
the ancients prophesied
oh what night, so many years ago
oh what night
footsteps on the ground below so heavy on the path
sand was drifting now
soon erasing all our tracks though the night was cold
had we ever run so fast
oh what night, so many years ago
oh what night
the stillest I have known
oh what night

All Of It Was Mine
by The Weather Station
I first heard Tamara on a cold & rainy night in Toronto a few years ago, in a tiny room packed with 20 people rapt in reverent silence. Her music has been warming me from the inside ever since.

The Bearer of Bad News
by Andy Shauf
You'll be in suspense from the first haunting piano line, to the climax of 'Dear Helen', as Andy's gripping tales examine the dark corners of small-town life. I like to call it 'Prairie Noir'.
