Hope in Our Hearts

Verse 1

Silver bells ring as we gather outside

Children spinning stories by the willow tree slide

Paper lanterns floating up into the sky

Welcoming tomorrow, letting old fears pass by

Fireworks blossom lighting up the dawn

Grandma waves a sparkler till the troubles are gone

Neighbors exchanging breads and warm apple pie

Peace to each other as the seasons go by

Chorus

Jingle a bell on ye night of Christmas

Under the stars, we gather and sing

Smiles and wishes for sisters and brothers

Hope in our hearts, let the new joy begin

Verse 2

Mama by the fire, cooking up her stew

Daddy telling stories, everybody glued

Candles all around, laughter in the room

Jingle a bell, Christmas coming soon

Pre-Chorus

Every hand reaching for a future so bright

Children’s laughter rolling deep through the night

All of my troubles waltz away

With family here, I’m not afraid

Chorus

Jingle a bell on ye night of Christmas

Under the stars, we gather and sing

Smiles and wishes for sisters and brothers

Hope in our hearts, let the new joy begin

Chorus

Jingle a bell on ye night of Christmas

Under the stars, we gather and sing

Smiles and wishes for sisters and brothers

Hope in our hearts, let the new joy begin

Verse 2

Mama by the fire, cooking up her stew

Daddy telling stories, everybody glued

Candles all around, laughter in the room

Jingle a bell, Christmas coming soon

Pre-Chorus

Every hand reaching for a future so bright

Children’s laughter rolling deep through the night

All of my troubles waltz away

With family here, I’m not afraid

Chorus

Jingle a bell on ye night of Christmas

Under the stars, we gather and sing

Smiles and wishes for sisters and brothers

Hope in our hearts, let the new joy begin

Bridge

Lanterns are glowing, wishes take flight

Midnight confetti sparkling, carrying the light

Round every table, a promise is made

To carry this joy through each new decade

Outro

Raise up your voices, now is the hour

Sending our dreams skyward, blooming like a flower

Jingle a bell, let our spirits stay true

Blessings arise—Merry Christmas, Happy New Year to you
