Upon A Christmas Eve

Upon A Christmas Eve

I walked out on Christmas Eve to see the city lights

And up and down the avenues I marveled at the sights

Flung out diamonds, strung out pearls, shimmered in the cold

As dark skyscrapers stood their watch on windows dressed in gold

And like a wise man chasing stars, I looked for a child

One asleep inside of me that Christmas once beguiled

And through the falling snow I tracked a fading memory

Until decked out in ragged clothes, an angel came to me

She smiled and said “that child got lost some long gone yesterday

But on this magic night he’s just -- a leap of faith away”

And then a thousand bells rang out announcing Christmas morn

And at that moment I could feel -- the child in me reborn

So fill your heart with love tonight, and wear it on your sleeve

For all good things are possible -- upon a Christmas Eve

For all good things are possible upon a Christmas Eve
