Snow
I sit by my window,
And watch the snow fall.
The fire casts a gentle shadow,
Across the messhall.
Crystal white flakes of snow,
Of the cold winter season.
It is a comfort to know,
This season has a reason.
The holy birth of the babe,
For whom angels prostrate fall.
The one who gave,
His life for us all.
Thank God for His son,
That lamb white as snow,
For the triumph He won,
So that we may all come to know.
