Another Christmas Lyrics & Tabs by Over the Rhine
Another Christmas
guitar chords lyrics
Another Christmas is drifting in softly
Like the ghost of my innocence lost
And the tree in the corner burns brightly
I turned all the other lights off
I think back on my life in this stillness
I consider the days of my youth
And the moments I find myself willing
To surrender and just tell the truth
‘Cause I've committed every sin
And each one leaves a different scar
It's just the world I'm livin' in
And I could use a guiding star
I hope that I can still believe
The Christ child holds a gift for me
Am I able to receive
I hope that I can still believe
The Christ child holds a gift for me
Am I able to receive
Peace on earth this Christmas
This old world so sweet and so bitter
Seeds of violence we humans have sown
And these weapons we still love to handle
May our children have strength to let go
When we look at the stars after midnight
Sparkling rumors of redemption at play
Can we still hear the echoes of angels
Who were singing that first Christmas day
‘Cause we've committed every sin
And each one leaves a different scar
It's just the world we're living in
And we could use a guiding star
I hope that we can still believe
The Christ child holds a gift for us
Are we able to receive
Peace on earth this Christmas
Hark the herald angels sing
Glory to the newborn king
Peace on earth and mercy mild
God and sinners reconciled
Joyful all ye nations rise
Join the triumph of the skies
With angelic hosts proclaim
Peace on earth this Christmas
