The holidays are coming up.
The days are getting slower.
Time to think, time to breathe.
It’s time to come together.

Families are gathered, the candles are lit.
The doors are closed, the food is served and the days are here..

To find a peace in where you’re going.
To be in a home where you rest in knowing
that you are safe, you are loved,
it’s time to rest.

Relaxed, comfortably, sitting in a chair.
Skimming through the headlines of the newspaper today.
Powerty, refugees, people losing their homes.
Cannot be affected, will not be affected.

Families are leaving to find shelter in a different land.
Give protection to their children, to find hope – to not live in fear..

Not knowing where they’re going.
To find a home wheere they rest in knowing,
that they are safe, they are loved,
it’s time to rest.

The days hav gone by, the holidays are over.
The time to think, the time to breathe.
Did it come with any answers, did it change anything.
The news is the same, the world is still the same.

Families were gathered, the candles were lit,
the doors were closed, the food was served, and the days were here..

To find a peace in where you’re going.
To be in a home where you rest in knowing
that you are safe, you are loved,
it’s time to rest.
