[Intro]
C C C F C
[Verse 1]
G C G C
There is silence around me in this peaceful winter night.
G C Am D
From the church down in the valley I can see the candlelight.
G C G C
And I stopped for a moment in this winter paradise,
G C Am D
When I heard a choir singing through the darkness and the ice.
[Verse 2]
G C G C
And the rays from the lights behind the window's vaulted frames
G C D D
Have united the souls in hope that something great is waiting.
G C G C
And I know that those who have left us here had the same thoughts as I,
G C Am D G
We're like flames in the darkness and stars up in the sky.
[Verse 3]
G C G C
And I can see how they sparkle and they fade before my eyes
G C Am D
And the truth is coming closer like a wonder in disguise.
G C G C
We are caught here a moment like an imprint of a hand
G C Am D
On an old and frosted window or a footprint in the sand.
[Verse 4]
G C G C
For a while I'm eternal - that's the only thing I know,
G C D D
I am here and we share our dreams about our destination.
G C G C
It is cold out here and the snow is white but I'm warm deep inside.
G C Am D G
I am warm 'cause I know that my faith will be my guide
[Verse 5]
G C G C
Now there is silence around me, I have heard those words again,
G C Am D
In a hymn of grace and glory, saying: nothing is in vain!
G C G C
I can sing- and believe it, let the message reach the sky.
G C Am D
Oh silent night, let your promise never die!
G C G C
And I long for the others, it is peaceful in the church.
G C D D
He was born for a purpose, and that's why we're here together.
G C G C
Holy night, I feel like a child inside, and believe He was sent.
G C Am D G
So I'm lighting a candle each Sunday in Advent.
