Gift Enough

C F G C
As the snow makes all things holy,
C G
Hushed and softened, draped in white,
C F G
Here my heart is lifted slowly
C F G C
By the beauty of the night.
As forgiveness, hurt redressing
Soothes a hundred bitter scars
Coming as an unsought blessing,
Like a thousand falling stars
Am Dm G C
All the world the snow is holding
C Em Dm
Turning every twig to lace.
Am Dm G7 Bmdim
Silence guides, in slow unfolding,
Am Dm G F
All my heart can know of grace...
One brief life is all we're given,
Treasure I will not rebuff.
Lying under snow new-shriven,
One real world is gift enough.
