On Christmas Day

The winds have cast us wide again

Spread further as the year’s grown thin

But when nights drag heavy, and mornings gray

We all come together on Christmas Day

Beneath His candle, bathed in light

Our tapestry is wove too tight

And though all that’s left are edges, frayed

Still we all together on Christmas Day

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

We sang His words from ancient psalms

Hallelujah, hallelujah

From Bethlehem to Babylon

When the stranger left to live on high

Dram by dram we drunk him dry

Then reversed the scales and how they’re weighed

And we all came together on Christmas day

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

We sang His words from ancient psalms

Hallelujah, hallelujah

From Bethlehem to Babylon

So we’ll hold the tidings tight within

For tomorrow brings the winds again

For to scatter us across these plains

Until we all come together on Christmas Day

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

We sang His words from ancient psalms

Hallelujah, hallelujah

From Bethlehem to Babylon
