"The Hope Of Christmas"

"The Hope Of Christmas"

Matthew West


Take me back to eight years old

The little church on a dead end road

With a candle flicker in one hand and dad's hand in the other

Take me back to Silent Night

My heart was full and the world was right

Cause right now the world looks nothing like those innocent Decembers

Theses days peace on earth is hard to find

And I need You to remind me one more time


You're still the hope of Christmas

You're still the light when the world looks dark

You're still the hope of Christmas

And You're still the hope of my heart


Watch the snow come falling down 

Like a blanket on this town 

For a moment we can hardly see the pain this year has brought us

May the sick find healing's touch 

Hatred's fight be won with love

And may every heart make room for You the One who came to save us


You're still the hope of Christmas

You're still the light when the world looks dark

You're still the hope of Christmas

And You're still the hope of my heart


Bowed my head to pray tonight

Felt my little girl by my side

She slipped her tiny hand in mine

And we both talked to You

And it took me back to 8 years old

And my daddy's hand and a story told

About Heaven's love in a manger low

And a promise that's still true


You're still the hope of Christmas

You're still the light when the world looks dark

You're still the hope of Christmas

And You're still the hope of my heart

Bible Verses

For the director of music. Of David. A psalm.   1  You have searched me,  Lord ,      and you know me.   2  You know when I sit and when I rise;      you perceive my thoughts from afar.   3  You discern my going out and my lying down;      you are familiar with all my ways.   4  Before a word is on my tongue      you,  Lord , know it completely.   5  You hem me in behind and before,      and you lay your hand upon me.   6  Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,      too lofty for me to attain.   7  Where can I go from your Spirit?      Where can I flee from your presence?   8  If I go up to the heavens, you are there;      if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.   9  If I rise on the ...
