Lights On a Tree

Verse 1

There’s a quiet peace on this December night,

Snow is fallin’ soft beneath the candlelight.

We’re gatherin’ close, families hand in hand,

But before the gifts, Lord, help us understand…

That a stable held a Savior, born for Calvary,

A King who came to die upon a rugged tree.

Chorus

So while we set up and stare at the lights,

Let us remember His sacrifice—

How He hung on that tree… for you and me.

I’m so grateful for the love of Jesus,

For the cross where mercy freed us.

Yeah, every shining Christmas light

Reminds me of that holy night—

And the grace that set my broken spirit free.

Verse 2

We wrap up hope in ribbons red and gold,

Tell the same sweet story we’ve always been told.

But the real gift wasn’t under any tree—

It was nails and thorns, and love to set us free.

So as children laugh and winter choirs sing,

Let us lift our hearts and praise the king of Kings.

Chorus

So while we set up and stare at the lights,

Let us remember His sacrifice—

How He hung on that tree… for you and me.

I’m so grateful for the love of Jesus,

For the cross where mercy freed us.

Yeah, every shining Christmas light

Reminds me of that holy night—

And the grace that set my broken spirit free.

Bridge (soft, emotional build)

Silent night… holy night…

Heaven’s love came shining bright.

Son of God, perfect Lamb,

Crucified to save every man.

Final Chorus

So while we set up and stare at the lights,

Let us remember His sacrifice—

How He hung on that tree… for you and me.

I’m so grateful for the love of Jesus,

For the cross where mercy freed us.

Yeah, Christmas is a story of

Unending, undeserving love—

And the greatest gift the world will ever see…

Hung on a tree. 🎄✝️
