After December Slips Away

The season comes\nBut once a year\nA gift of precious wonder\nFor all who hold it dear\nBut past the sights\nAnd colored lights\nLord, far beyond December\nI will remember\nAfter the carols fade away\nAfter the yule fire dies down\nWhen there are no longer dreams\nTo open and see\nBecause You are hope\nAnd joy and peace\nBecause You’re the only gift I need\nIn my heart the season will remain\nAfter December slips away\nYears ago beneath a tree\nFell the drops of crimson\nThat set the faithful free\nThe gift was life sent in love\nLord, far beyond December\nI will remember\nAfter the carols fade away\nAfter the yule fire dies down\nWhen there are no longer\nDreams to open and see\nBecause You are hope\nAnd joy and peace\nBecause You’re the only gift I need\nIn my heart the season will remain\nAfter December slips away\nNo matter how bright\nThe glitter shines\nNo matter how many hopes come true\nI know that all I have\nBegins and ends with You
