Joy Williams - 2000 Decembers Ago
текст песни

Did it feel like a night any different?
Then at least a million before
Was there any rare expectation
Like there was some kind of somethin' in store

Did the sky have to hold back the thunder?
Did the moon find new reasons to glow?
Could the children somehow sense the wonder
2000 Decembers ago?

Were the sheep as amazed as the shepherds
At the new star that lit up the sky?
Did the willow trees whisper excitement
To the rivers and streams passing by?

Did the joy ricochet off the mountains
'Til it filled up the valleys below?
Did all the world sense love abounding
2000 Decembers ago?

Was anyone able to look at the stable
And not see a child but a King
I wish, I could hear back over the years
As heaven and nature sing, heaven and nature sing

Did the walls of the barn start to tremble
With a glory they could not contain?
Did anyone wake with the feeling
Of peace that they could not explain?

Oh, the love must have been overwhelming
As it warmed everyone in its flow
For all of the earth is still telling
Of 2000 Decembers ago

Was anyone able to look at the stable
And not see a child but a King
I wish, I could hear back over the years
As heaven and nature sing

Was anyone able to look at the stable
And not see a child but a King
I wish, I could hear back over the years
As heaven and nature sing, heaven and nature sing
Heaven and nature sing

Oh, the love must have been overwhelming
2000 Decembers ago
