Another year did not last
Hopes that lived have now passed
Another year has gone by
A few "hello"s and "goodbye"s

Aging treads a slow pace
In a blink I'm old-faced
As the winter brings cold
And makes heavy this world

On this darkest night
Atop the tree set lights
We will sing out loud
Christ has risen now
On this darkest night sing
To the friend and true king

And in some ways we've changed
But our sins still remain
Your forgiveness brings warmth
For auld lang syne sing once more

On this darkest night
Atop the tree set lights
We will sing out loud
Christ has risen now
On this darkest night sing
To the friend and true king
