When the stars grow cold and fade away, the earth becomes a haven; For the sunbursts of a winter sky, which warm us from our burdens.
Despite the sweetness of holiday cheer, the only things we've left to see; Are the snowy mountain tops ahead, resplendent in their alabaster sea.
But with the rising of the morning sun, its glowing face upon us all; We huddle together and watch the gleam, as it beckons us through windswept squalls.
So if the day can be revived, with such brightness shining near; The frosty stars will take a hint, soon recovering on a night so clear.
And seeing the sparkle over the hills, we pray for cherished evenings; Of love and light within our sight, with holy songs from angels' healing.
