Magical Lights
Embracing Light: A Winter Tale of Magical Illumination
Lyrics
When I was a little child
Reflecting on childhood memories
I longed for winter time
Anticipation for the winter season
I dreamed magical lights
Imagining enchanting lights
Wrapped tight around our tree
Lights adorned around the family tree
Brought Christmas home to me
Enhancing the Christmas experience
Oh what a wonderful sight
Expressing joy at the sight
Can you see those magical lights?
Inviting others to witness the lights
Held in the arms of
Lights embraced by a tall and bright tree
A tree tall and bright
Highlighting the beauty of the tree
Every evening
Regular attraction to the glowing lights
Drawn to the glow of those lights
Drawn to the warmth and radiance
We cut our Christmas tree
Recalling the tradition of cutting a tree
It never occurred to me
Acknowledging the sacrifice of the tree
That tree gave up its life
Realization of the tree's sacrifice
To hold our ornaments
The tree as a vessel for ornaments
Shelter our presents
Providing shelter for Christmas presents
To help us remember the Christ
Linking the tree to the memory of Christ
Can you see those beautiful lights?
Reiterating the beauty of the lights
Held in the arms of
Lights embraced by a sacrificial tree
A tree sacrificed
Highlighting the sacrifice of the tree
Every evening
Continuing attraction to the lights
We're drawn to the glow of those lights
Drawn to the warmth and radiance again
Each December
Emphasizing December as a significant time
On our longest nights
Longing for light during the darkest nights
In the darkness
Expressing the desire for illumination
How we long for light
Seeking light in the metaphorical darkness
For light . . .
Repetition for emphasis on the importance of light
Come and see those
Inviting others to witness the magical lights
Magical lights
Reiteration of the enchanting lights
Held in the arms of
Lights embraced by a sacrificial tree
A tree sacrificed
Highlighting the sacrifice of the tree again
Every evening
Continuing attraction to the lights
We're drawn to the glow of those lights
Repetition of the warmth and radiance
Every evening
Reiterating the significance of remembering Christ
They help us remember the Christ
Emphasizing the spiritual aspect once more
