FOR THE LOST AND ALONE CHRISTMAS IS HOPE
Embracing Hope: A Christmas Anthem for the Lost and Alone
Lyrics
The fire, crackles, and pops.
The sound of fire crackling and popping.
Hot chocolate is on the stovetop.
Hot chocolate is being prepared on the stovetop.
And the TV is singing Rudolph,
The TV is playing a song about Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer.
The Red-Nosed Reindeer.
Reference to a classic Christmas character.
Jack Frost whistles at night.
Jack Frost is whistling at night.
As the Northstar, begins to grow bright.
The Northstar is becoming brighter.
And the church bells ring with delight
Church bells are ringing joyfully, signaling the arrival of Santa Claus (Saint Nick).
That Saint Nick is here.
Celebrating the presence of Santa Claus.
Inside our homes.
Feeling safe and warm inside our homes.
We’re safe and warm.
Contrasting the warmth inside with the harshness of the storm outside.
Not everyone,
Acknowledging that not everyone is protected from the storm.
Is kept from the storm.
Emphasizing the vulnerability of some individuals.
Help change the year.
Encouraging a positive change in the coming year.
For the lost and alone.
Appealing to help those who are lost and alone.
Let love conquer fear.
Advocating for love to overcome fear.
For Christmas is hope.
Stating that Christmas embodies hope.
Snowflakes dancing around,
Describing snowflakes dancing and decorations throughout the town.
Decorations all over town.
Highlighting the festive atmosphere.
And the choir sings to a crowd,
A choir singing to a crowd, conveying holiday greetings.
Merry Christmas to you.
Wishing a Merry Christmas to the audience.
The shelter is serving turkey,
A shelter is providing turkey to those surviving on the streets.
To the homeless surviving the streets.
Reference to the harsh reality of homelessness.
And the children are praying for peace,
Children are praying for peace, emphasizing the importance of love and harmony.
Where love always rules.
Expressing the idea that love should always prevail.
