Christmas prayer
This is another one of the songs we wrote for
the large scale Schools Christmas project in 2012
This song was written as the end of the show song, with a feel of nostalgia!
In the writing process I went between 4/4 and 6/8 time
I like the way the notes in the verse melody track in 2 different keys
The tag was added after the main body of the song was written and I feel really
lifts it at the end
Each of the 10 concerts we first used this song at had around 250 children
waving their LED finger lights as they sang this
It was a great emotional song to end to the event every evening!
LYRICS
Church bells are ringing, carollers singing
Snow is beginning to fall (all around)
It’s time for reflection, anticipation
Everyone waiting for one day
Our prayer for you this Christmas time
Is for love and peace and joy and laughter
May the Lord of all the earth
Bring you faith and hope from Heaven’s eternal throne
In your tomorrows, the joys and the sorrows
Look up and follow the Light (of the world)
Trust him to guide you, let his love shine through
As you move into the new year
Christmas blessings, may you know God near
Christmas blessings, for the coming year
