Winter Song

Anna Tabbush

When all life has left the ground
When ice like diamond sparkles around
When Jack Frost creeps under your skin
Cold winds blow out the fire within
When the swallow takes her flight
When the day is filled with night
Light a flame to guide you through
Spring will surely come to you

Darkness fills the icy gloom
Still and silent as a tomb
When the heart is heavy with woe
Fill up this room with an earthly glow
Strike a flame and touch a hand
For that is the gift of man
Light the love to guide you through
Spring will surely come to you
