Christmas Angel
by Emily Richards (RillRiver Publishing ASCAP)
This is Christmas
When dreams do come true
Roses sleeping on the snow
A veil for quiet blue
Christmas, this is Christmas
Candle vigils
We're present to truth
Opened by unceasing life
His gift, eternal youth
Christmas, this is Christmas
Christmas, a very different Christmas
There is a new star
And a new angel
An empty place at the end of the table
She sings with the choir
That's silent to us though we believe in
Always and forever
Our own Christmas angel
Sons and daughters of light
Remembrance, a birth on that night
Gather round, pierced by the sound
Of living spirit and love's sweet delight
Christmas, this is Christmas
Christmas, a very different Christmas
There is a new star
And a new angel
An empty place at the end of the table
She sings with the choir
That's silent to us, though we believe in
Always and forever
Our own Christmas Angel
Always and forever
Our own Christmas Angel
This is Christmas
When dreams do come true
