Epiphany

To celebrate Epiphany, a joyous festivity.

 A star so bright, it led the way, 

To where the newborn Savior lay.

When Jesus was revealed, so pure and bright. 

To the wise men, a guiding star, 

Bringing gifts from lands afar.

 With gold and myrrh in their hands. 

A king’s new birth, a humble sight,

 In Bethlehem, on that holy night.

When Jesus was revealed, so pure and bright. 

To the wise men, a guiding star,

A manifestation, in His name. 

Jesus Christ, the Son of God, 

For all humanity, a light abroad.

Oh, Epiphany, the day of light, 

When Jesus was revealed, so pure and bright. 

To the wise men, a guiding star,

 Bringing gifts from lands afar.

 On Epiphany, we celebrate again. 

A savior born for you and me,

 In Him, we find our destiny.

Christmas Eve Apart

 **Verse 1**  

Snowflakes fall, the world turns white,  

We're miles apart on this Christmas night.  

Children and I in the church's glow,  

You in a hotel, feeling the cold.

**Chorus**  

Through the storm, our hearts stay warm,  

Live chat keeps us close, through the norm.  

Christmas Eve, though we're apart,  

Love connects us, heart to heart.

**Verse 2**  

Mass bells ring, a holy sound,  

In the pews, our kids gather 'round.  

You're in snowman pajamas, feeling blue,  

But our messages bring me close to you.

**Chorus**  

Through the storm, our hearts stay warm,  

Live chat keeps us close, through the norm.  

Christmas Eve, though we're apart,  

Love connects us, heart to heart.

**Bridge**  

Memories of past Christmases,  

Laughter, joy, and sweet kisses.  

This year is different, but love remains,  

In every message, we break the chains.

**Chorus**  

Through the storm, our hearts stay warm,  

Live chat keeps us close, through the norm.  

Christmas Eve, though we're apart,  

Love connects us, heart to heart.

**Outro**  

Next year we'll be together,  

In any storm, in any weather.  

But tonight, our love's the light,  

Merry Christmas, my dear, goodnight.

A magical world, a wondrous sight.

But shadows creep, a sinister plan,

Good versus evil, soaring high.

Through icy winds and frozen ground,

The Nutcracker's spirit, ever sound.

Nutcracker soldiers, brave and bold,

Marching forth, their courage unfold.

Shields held high, swords gleaming bright,

Defending Christmas, with all their might.

Christmas joy, forever engraved.

Let's celebrate, with hearts so light,

A Christmas miracle, a wondrous sight.

Echoes of Gabriel's voice a hymn that fills the air

From the first light of morn their melody takes flight

In a holy rhapsody pure and bright

An angel's whisper to her heart a secret softly told

Yet in the song of birds the tale is retold

Our lady listens with a grace divine

To the sweet songbirds making heaven's sign

In every note a story that’s been foretold

Blue jays in the branches a serenade so divine

To our Virgin Mary through the passage of time

[Verse 3]

Beneath the canopy of dreams in hues of blue and white

The archangel's proclamation a radiant light

In the flutter of wings and heaven’s gentle breeze

The message of hope brings hearts to their knees

With each and every note faith and love conspire

In the symphony of life setting hearts afire

Songs of blue jays lift the veil thin

Between the heaven's high and where they begin

Feathers flutter miracles unfold

In every note a story that’s been foretold

Blue jays in the branches a serenade so divine

To our Virgin Mary through the passage of time

Christmas Blues

Sitting by the fire, snow falling outside

Reminiscing about the memories we made

Wishing you were here, by my side

But you're far away, and my heart begins to ache

Missing you, don't know what to do

Snowflakes falling, carols playing

But it all feels empty without you (ooh-yeah)

Decorations all around, lights shining so bright

 But without your laughter, it just doesn't feel right

 I hold your picture, close to my heart

 Wishing this distance wouldn't keep us apart

Missing you, don't know what to do

Snowflakes falling, carols playing

But it all feels empty without you (ooh-yeah)

I see your smile in my mind’s eye 

Underneath the mistletoe, I stand alone 

Dreaming of the day you'll finally come home

Missing you, don't know what to do

Snowflakes falling, carols playing

But it all feels empty without you (ooh-yeah)

 But this lonely feeling I can't deny

 I light a candle, make a silent plea 

Hoping you'll be here, sharing Christmas with me

Missing you, don't know what to do

Snowflakes falling, carols playing

But it all feels empty without you (ooh-yeah)
