New recording of a song from the Snow on the Roof album
lyrics
Distant Light ( Bob Fraser)
There’s a story from of old
And down the years it’s been re-told
It’s given hope, it’s brought some peace
To the lost and to the least
It says some wise men journeyed far
As they followed heaven’s star
And since that wondrous light has shone
Two thousand years have come and gone
Chorus
And in this world there’s joy and tears
We’ll know love and we’ll know fears
But even on our darkest days
We have your light to guide our ways
Though we travel far and wide
You have been right by our side
Through the darkness of the night
We can see a distant light
Well I believe this story’s true,
I hope it makes some sense to you
I hope your searching soon will cease
And you will find a place of peace
Chorus
So in the times of darkness
When we can’t see the way
A distant light will lead us
To a better day
Well I believe this story’s true
I hope it makes some sense to you
I hope your searching soon will cease
And you will find a place of peace
Chorus
And in this world there’s joy and tears
We’ll know love and we’ll know fears
But even on our darkest days
We have your light to guide our ways
Though we travel far and wide
You have been right by our side
Through the darkness of the night
We can see a distant light
