Christmas Eve
Folk are travelling home
Love is gathering in
All we call our own
Carols now from Kings
Fill my own wee space
Peace at Christmas brings
Dearly bought sought grace
And those who have gone before
Remember now this night
Upon another shore
And in a greater light
The Lord born this holy night
Lord of living and dead
Unites us with all those we love
Risen as he said
Gather round the sacred child
Look into his face
Find the secret of your life
You will grow in grace
The promise of the world to be
The promise of today
Is close beside you faithfully
Lift up your heart and pray
