Christmas For One

Christmas for one,
Under an unforgiving southern sun.
Microwave on,
Your one phone call been and then
again you're alone.
And your job's what it is,
It keeps the lights on and keeps
your belly filled.
While you hide
Yourself from the world
Your ears from their words
And your heart from
The love you think you don't deserve
And your dreams are all ghosts
Their very existence is what hurts the most.
But they can't touch the world,
They just scratch at the edges
til you've lost the will.
And you hide
Yourself from it all.
Pay no heed to the call.
Turn your back on
The love you think you don't deserve.
Christmas for one.
It's only cold in the desert when
The moon comes home

It came upon the midnight clear,
That glorious song of old
From angels bending near the earth
To touch their harps of gold
Peace on the earth, goodwill to men,
From heav'n's all gracious king
The world in solemn stillness lay
To hear the angels sing.
Still through the cloven skies they come
With peaceful wings unfurl
And still their heavenly music floats,
O'er all the weary world.
Above its sad and lowly plains
They bend on hovering wing
And ever o'er its Babel sounds
The blessed angels sing.
Hallelujah
For lo the days are hastening on,
By prophets seen of old
When with the ever circling years
Shall come the time foretold
When peace shall over the earth
It's ancient splendours fling
And the whole world send back the song
which now the angels sing.
Hallelujah

O Holy Night

O holy night
The starts are brightly shining
It is the night
Of our dear saviour's birth.
Long lay the world
In sin and error pining
Til he appeared
And the soul felt it's worth.
Ray of hope
A weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks
A new and glorious morn
Fall
On your knees
O hear
The angel voices
O night Devine
O night
Night Devine
