verse 1

Snow is falling the fields are white

There's not a blade of grass in sight

The sun shines through a broken sky

A golden beam from way up high

Peace, love, and faith teaches us to

lend a helping hand,Jesus helps us every way

he can.No matter where we live, we will survive,

we will learn to obey the rules and be alive.

Peace, love, and faith helps us to be free,

Jesus helps everyone including you and me.

He knows what to do day to day,

Jesus wants to love us in His own way.

chorus

The glittering frost lies all around

Like sparkling gems each winter found

The earth becomes hard crisp and dry

As the flowers seem to fade and die.

The streams are frozen with solid ice

Even the trees pay the winter's price

Rabbits and mice burrow 'neath the ground

Waiting for spring in sleep they're bound

verse 2

Smoking chimneys seem to tell a tale

Even the birds have set their sail

Upon each window Jack has drawn

A distinctive pattern no window the same

But alas winter is cold and hard

Symbolic of life be on your guard

The beauty of winter can be easily found

Like everything in life just you look around

Peace, love, and faith is what we all need,

Life is passing by in such a speed.

We wonder what is going on from day to day;

we all need to take time to pray.

chorus

The glittering frost lies all around

Like sparkling gems each winter found

The earth becomes hard crisp and dry

As the flowers seem to fade and die.

The streams are frozen with solid ice

Even the trees pay the winter's price

Rabbits and mice burrow 'neath the ground

Waiting for spring in sleep they're bound



verse 3

Peace, love, and faith should be in our heart,

if we all work hard, we can do our part.

It doesn't matter what kind of race,

we all want to have that smiling face.

Stormy winds beat upon the Sea

Killer whales cry beneath the deep

we’ve come a long way, down through the years

So much has changed, from birth to tears

a new millennium we anxiously await,

A few more miles to heaven's gate.

Between the thick trees on a moonlit hill,

A flicker of grey threads its way to a shadow less glade

And sits itself under the vastness of a crisp sky-

A lone, pitiful cry shatters the silence.

The pounding of its heart gives vibrancy to the air
chorus
which is still and sharp in the frozen forest.

Its head is thrust back to utter deviancy,

and its sorrowful eyes yearn an intense pity

Peace, love, and faith is among all of us,

we have to learn to share and trust.

The glittering frost lies all around

Like sparkling gems each winter found

The earth becomes hard crisp and dry

verse 4

It doesn't matter if we are black or white,

Jesus will keep us in His sight.

I can't SEE the angels who comfort and guide me,

But I am AWARE they are ALWAYS beside me . . .

Lifting my countenance when I am low,

Helping me stay on the path I should go.

When I'm uncertain or fringe on despair,

I still maintain faith that the angels are there;

Not interfering, but watching to see

How I handle each challenge that's placed before me.

It's difficult here in this "schoolroom" of Earth,

Repeating the cycles, birth, death, and rebirth . . .

But the angels encourage with light and with love;

they’re GOD'S special messengers sent from above.

Although the "Earth journey" seems endlessly long,

be not dismayed; in your heart keep a song.

We have angels to guide us . . . no more could we ask . . .

As we step forth with courage to master each task.

Hi Penny... I love the title of this... I can't say I can connect the title to the song.... (which is not a bad thing and maybe one day I will write song by the same name... if you won't be offended?) Again the meter varies between the verses... also verse 4 is a different lenght to the other 3... I am not one to pick length on a song as I firmly believe that a song should be as long as it needs to be... but this is quite long.... shortening wouldn't hurt it but that's JMO.

Hope this helps some

Cheers

noel sure you can.yes i know i wrote this one to long and i am working on making them shorter too
