I’ve had an idea for a song called “More Than The Lights” but hadn’t worked on it much until recently.

I think it’s a good start in conveying the idea that all the things we experience and love during the Christmas season aren’t bad in themselves but are reverberations from the impact God made when He presented us with His Son. They aren’t to be worshipped but are there for us to enjoy and remind us of the One to be worshipped.

Hope you enjoy the song! Let me know if it made the impact it did on me. Happy Holidays! 🦃🎄

 More Than The Lights

Verse

Sitting in the warmth of firelight glow

Captured by the silent, falling snow

Lights all set and decorations gleam

Surrounded by the love of family

I can lose myself in all the season brings

But I don’t want to hide the forest with the tree

Chorus

More than the lights

(More than) Silver or Gold

More than frost from a winter’s night

Nipping at your nose

More than the songs

Sung of Evergreen

It’s the sound of the applause for a Newborn king

Verse

The gifts have all been wrapped and placed with care

The pattered steps of children on the stair

Eyes ashine with wonder at the scene

A long wait’s end is now within their reach

I can lose myself in all the season brings

But I don’t want to hide the forest with the tree
