Christmas
Warm cheerful Christmas-style tune.

Verse 1
Frost on the branches, the world deep in rest,
Winter has folded the land to its chest.
Quiet as starlight, the forest stands still,
Waiting for sunrise to climb the far hill.
Chorus
Raise a flame for the longest night,
Hold it close, let it shine so bright.
Though the cold winds circle and sway,
The turning sun is on its way.
Warmth will return when shadows lift,
The solstice brings the daylight’s gift.
Verse 2
Snow drifts like feathers across the dark ground,
Covering footprints without any sound.
Far in the distance, a pale golden glow
Hints that the day wants to break through the snow.
Chorus
Raise a flame for the longest night,
Hold it close, let it shine so bright.
Though the cold winds circle and sway,
The turning sun is on its way.
Warmth will return when shadows lift,
The solstice brings the daylight’s gift.
Bridge
Gather together where embers burn low,
Stories are shared while the north breezes blow.
Hearts grow lighter as sparks fill the air,
Winter is harsh, but the sun hears our prayer.
Verse 3
Soon light will lengthen, each morning will rise
Painting soft colors across open skies.
Step by step, season by season we learn
Life keeps its promise, the sun will return.
Final Chorus
Raise a flame for the longest night,
Hold it close, let it shine so bright.
Spring will follow and warmth will stay,
The turning sun is on its way.
Hope grows strong when the year is new,
The solstice brings its light to you.
