Lyrics & inspiration below...
In light of current events and the season, my songwriting partner Carol and I were inspired to write this song and try our amateur hands at filming a music video. I was invited to play at the annual Christmas Eve celebration in our new hometown of Lyons CO. We wanted to contribute something special and this is what came through. We wrote, recorded, filmed and edited the song in 4 days.
CHRISTMAS EVE: WRITTEN BY: ARTHUR LEE LAND / CAROL LEE
LET US CALL ON THE ANGELS, ANGELS
COMFORTING THROUGH THE NIGHT
CLEARLY IN THE MORNING.MORNING
WE'LL BE REBORN INTO NEW LIGHT
LET'S BOW OUR HEADS
AND SAY A PRAYER
AND FEEL THE LOVE FOR ALL THE FOLKS
WE'VE LOST THROUGHOUT THE YEARS
OUR HEAVY HEARTS
NEED NOT DESPAIR
TAKE A BREATH
FOR GOD IS HERE
WE'LL LEAVE SWEET KISSES ON OUR CHILDREN, CHILDREN
AS THEY SLEEP SOUNDLY IN OUR HOME
TO GIVE AND RECEIVE THESE BLESSINGS, BLESSINGS
LET OUR GRATEFUL HEARTS OVERFLOW
LET'S BOW OUR HEADS
AND SAY A PRAYER
AND FEEL THE LOVE FOR ALL THE FOLKS
WE'VE LOST THROUGHOUT THE YEARS
OUR HEAVY HEARTS
NEED NOT DESPAIR
TAKE A BREATH
FOR GOD IS HERE
LET US CALL ON THE ANGELS, ANGELS
COMFORTING THROUGH THE NIGHT
CLEARLY IN THE MORNING.MORNING
WE'LL BE REBORN INTO NEW LIGHT
