[E] Each winter as [Am] the year [Em] grows _ older, _ [Am] we each grow [D] _ older [E] _ too.
_ [Em] _ The chill sets [A] in a [Em] little _ colder, [D] _ _
[C] the _ verities [D] we knew _ [Bm] seem shaken and [E]
untrue.
_ _ [G] _ _ _ [Bm] _ _
[E] _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] When race and [Em] class [Am] fight [E] for _ _ treason, [Em] _ [Am] when sirens call, [D] _ _ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ _ they _ overshout [A] the voice [Em] of _ reason
_ [D] _
[C] and scream till [D] we ignore _ _ [Bm] all we held dear _ _ before.
_ _ _ [Em] _
_ _ [Am] _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _
_ [Am] _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _
_ But I [Am] believe beyond _ [Em] _ [A] believing [E] _ _ [Am] that life can [D] spring [A] from death, _
_ [Em] _ that growth can [A] flower from [Em] our _ grieving, [Bm] _
[C] that we can catch [D] our _ breath _ [Bm] and turn _ transfixed by [D] _ fate.

So _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ [E] even [Am] as the sun [Em] is _ _ turning _ [Am] to journey [D] to [Em] the _ _ north, _
a living flame [A] in [E] secret _ _ burning [Am] _ can [C] _
kindle [D] on the _ earth [Bm] and bring God's love to [Em] the _ _ earth. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ O child of [Am] ecstasy [Em] and _ _ sorrows, [Am] O prince of [D] peace [Em] and _ _ pain,
_ brighten _ [A] today's world by _ _ [Em] _
[D] tomorrow's, _ [C] renew our [D] lives _ again.
_ [Bm] Lord Jesus, _ come [E] and reign.
