A Christmas Candle
Copyright 1975, 2011 by Gandalf
Oh, light a Christmas candle
Upon the Christmas tree,
And leave it there a-shining
For someone else to see.
Oh, sing a Merry Christmas
For everyone to hear it;
There is nothing so miraculous
As old-time Christmas spirit!
Caroling under bearskin
On a twilight cutter ride,
While all around the white goose down
Swirls as we glide.
Looking up we see on high
The star of Bethlehem,
Remembering that first Christmas
When shepherds worshiped Him.
As homeward-bound we turn,
The gladden church bells ring,
Announcing far and wide once more
The Day of which we sing.
Infant Christ in manger humble
Smiles upon this joyous sight,
And grants peace to all His children
On Christmas, yes, Christmas Night!
So light a Christmas candle
Upon the Christmas tree,
And leave it there a-shining
For someone else to see.
