Candles of Hope, of Faith, of Joy
burning bright, waiting for tomorrow
with the candle of Peace
only a few hours more to His candle
the light entering the world once more
the ritual lighting of the light
bringing the good news to hearts afresh, anew
telling the old story, reaching new hearts
young hearts, with eyes of wonder
drinking in the story of the baby come
to save our souls, all of us
in a manger bed
