LYRICS

[Verse]
Snow is falling on the old stone road
Lanterns glow where the north wind roams
Footsteps echo through silent years
Every prayer, every hope leads here

[Verse]
Candles shimmer in window light
Old songs rise in the velvet night
Through the cold, through time and space
Love still waits in this sacred place

[Pre-Chorus]
Every shadow learns to sing
When the bells of Christmas ring

[Chorus]
Under winter skies we stand
Heart to heart, hand in hand
All the world feels still tonight
Wrapped in love and candlelight
Under winter skies so wide
Hope is born where fears reside

[Post-Chorus]
Ooooh
Ooooh

[Verse]
Firelight dances on your face
Time slows down, we breathe in grace
Every road that led us far
Brings us back to where we are

[Verse]
Old promises softly return
In every flame that still will burn
Through the dark the truth appears
Love outlives the passing years

[Pre-Chorus]
In this hush the world feels new
Every star is leading you

[Chorus]
Under winter skies we stand
Heart to heart, hand in hand
All the world feels still tonight
Wrapped in love and candlelight
Under winter skies so wide
Hope is born where fears reside

[Bridge]
If the night feels cold and long
Listen close, love is strong
Every tear, every sigh
Turns to gold beneath this sky

[Chorus]
Under winter skies we stay
Till the dawn of Christmas Day
Every soul is glowing bright
In this calm and holy night
Under winter skies above
We are home, we are love
