Ornaments
There is a warmth inside the night
The evening glows with candlelight
We drape the tree
with strands of white
and then turn on the glistening lights
We'll unwrap our favorite trinkets
and little figurines
and hang them up so carefully
for everyone to see
In the hope chest of my heart
are the greatest gifts
that I've received
We've collected memories
like the treasures
on our Christmas tree
We're creating ornaments in time
sculpted by your dreams meeting mine
Pictures of love cascade in my mind
as hand painted scenes
on ornaments in time
Sweet moments decorate our souls
Keepsakes become heirlooms of gold
The tree of life bears fruit again
with happiness that knows no end
Under the light of the moon
Snowflakes fall in midnight blue
It feels like Christmas
all year through
since heaven brought me you
In the hope chest of my heart
are the greatest gifts
that I've received
We've collected memories
like the treasures
on our Christmas tree
We're creating ornaments in time
sculpted by your dreams meeting mine
Pictures of love cascade in my mind
as hand painted scenes
on ornaments in time
There's a light in your eyes
my heart recognizes
and I feel like I have wings
as if wrapping paper angels
come to life and sing
We're creating ornaments in time
sculpted by your dreams meeting mine
Pictures of love cascade in my mind
as hand painted scenes
on ornaments in time
