Talk about a winter
|
The world had never known,
|
Talk about a silence
|
That hardened up the soil;
|
No more life left in Eden,
|
But You knew the time would come…
|
'Cause You were growing up a family
|
That You would call Your own,
|
And through a fragile people
|
The Light of Life would come,
|
And when it seemed like we’d never see Spring,
|
Heaven gave a King!
|
Like an Amaryllis, blooming at Christmas,
|
When everything was cold and dark
|
Your love broke through and You shined
|
With the brilliance of summer,
|
Right in the middle of winter!
|
You came surprising the night,
|
Like a Christmas Amaryllis…
|
Here I am waiting
|
In a winter of my own
|
If it’s gonna be this cold here
|
Why couldn’t it just snow?
|
At least I could say through the pain
|
That it’s somehow beautiful…
|
And everybody knows that the time to bloom is spring,
|
But You’re asking me to break through the hardness of this freeze
|
And You say that You’re with me
|
And I can make it through anything…
|
Like an Amaryllis, blooming at Christmas,
|
When everything is cold and dark
|
Your love breaks through and I shine
|
With the brilliance of summer,
|
Right in the middle of winter!
|
Somehow surprising the night
|
Like a Christmas Amaryllis…
|
There are the rare and beautiful treasures
|
That grow when it’s coldest
|
When nobody’s watching…
|
Sending a message to a sleeping world
|
That You are here with us now
|
And You are making all things new again…
|
Like an Amaryllis, blooming at Christmas,
|
When everything is cold and dark
|
Your love breaks through and You shine!
|
With the brilliance of summer,
|
Right in the middle of winter!
|
Ever surprising the night,
|
Like a Christmas Amaryllis
|
You’re still surprising the night
|
Like a Christmas Amaryllis… |
