lyrics

Warm days are a memory
The blushing trees take of their clothes
They're waiting patiently
For a blanket, for whitest robes

The sun goes early to its rest
The eager moon is soon to shine
In the cold the stars are bold and bright and
Coming dawn takes its time

Oh snow fall steady
Oh come, white and clean
Let the hush cover everything
Give our lungs room to breath
Give our lungs room to breath

The streets are dressed in red and gold
Oh they've been waiting all year long
The air takes on a kind of sheen
It's hummin' familiar songs

Home is home all the more
With a fire and the whole family
It's a witness to the tales of yore
And all the Christmases we hope to see

Oh snow fall steady
Oh come, white and clean
Let the hush cover everything
Give our lungs room to breath

Oh snow fall steady
Oh come, white and clean
Let the hush cover everything
Give our lungs room to breath

Glad tidings, on the way
Let all our hearts draw near
Oh Christ, oh holiday
Bring light and hope and cheer

Glad tidings, on the way
Let all our hearts draw near
Oh Christ, oh holiday
Bring light and hope and cheer

Bring light and hope and cheer
