Matthew Hender - Winter Solstice Night Lyrics

Winter solstice night, please show us some light
Once December's past, more snow will amass
Blustering blizzards blow, cover ground with snow
February's here, long cold nights of fear
Grab your coat and hat, slacks and stocking cap
Briskly keep your pace, keep the chill at bay
But it won't be long till it melts away
And the grey cold days, they thaw away
Cut an old oak tree, now you're strength will wane
Blaze a fire flame, now not all's in vain
Fire burns so bright, burn for me tonight
Tell me evergreens, how do you grow
Gusting blowing winds, cuts right through the skin
Briskly keep your pace, keep the chill at bay
But it won't be long till it melts away
And the grey cold days, they thaw away
It won't be long till it melts away
And the wind and the snow oh it blows
And the wind and the snow oh it blows
