Christmas Song lyrics

[Verse 1]
Fire-bright faces in winter night
A dog in the distance barks
The sky speaks in patterns of starlight
The fire replies in sparks

[Verse 2]
The stream is a motionless moment
Salmon in the sea swims deep
Pregnant with force as a prayer is
Spring in the hard earth sleeps

[Pre-Chorus]
Like the snow on the stark spruce limb
Coated with ice, then stripped by wind
We melt away and return again

[Chorus]
Stronger for the tempering flame
Stronger for the Saviour's name
