Advent Hopes
The darkest days come, the longest night
Yet on a clear night, the stars shine out
The planets adorn the heavens so bright
And their songs bring hope to doubt
Poor shepherds, on the hillside with sheep
Scraping a living, for their families at home
Beneath the stars, their silent vigil keep
Watchful eyes upon where sheep roam
Cold is the night, huddling by a warming fire
Telling tales of old, a famous shepherd boy
Lifting the spirits, hearing hope’s desire
And their words bring so near that joy
This is a lesson true to hold fast and wait
And find the path to be made straight
The darkest days come, the longest night
Yet on a clear night, the stars shine out
The planets adorn the heavens so bright
And their songs bring hope to doubt
Poor shepherds, on the hillside with sheep
Scraping a living, for their families at home
Beneath the stars, their silent vigil keep
Watchful eyes upon where sheep roam
Cold is the night, huddling by a warming fire
Telling tales of old, a famous shepherd boy
Lifting the spirits, hearing hope’s desire
And their words bring so near that joy
This is a lesson true to hold fast and wait
And find the path to be made straight
