Faces of Christmas
words and music by Tim Noah © 2009
We come in all colors, every shape and size
With a face you know or don’t recognize
The stranger next door, a friend far away
We cry and we curse, we laugh and we pray
CHORUS:
We are the faces of Christmas
With so many stories to tell
Good tidings and blessings around the world
Joy, Peace, Noel
We might have wrinkles, a big bumpy nose
Eyes that twinkle, holes in our clothes
Might choose a fork instead of a spoon
Need a haircut or sing out of tune
(REPEAT CHORUS)
We’re the cranky ol’ man at the check out stand
The kid dancing with delight
The foreigner with an accent you can’t understand
The sweetheart you kiss good night
We’re foolish and wise we’re young and we’re old
We sit by the fire we’re out in the cold
We’re a haggard mother who waits by the phone
A runaway trying to find a way home
(REPEAT CHORUS)
