lyrics

The ghost
The ghost
The ghost

The ghost of Christmas past is here
That you may be redeemed
Its burning light reflects the years
To share forgotten scenes
Well meaning though in nature be
And gentle as is firm
Will guide you through lost memory
For lessons you must learn

The ghost
The ghost
Is here to save your soul
The spirit knows
You need not be alone

The ghost
The ghost

It flickers like a candle flame
That will not be put out
Though few in words, must be obeyed
When mind is cast in doubt
And in that fire a former self
Who’s heart now worn by time
Was seen to share in humble wealth
Of laughter, love, and kind

The ghost
The ghost
Is here to save your soul
The spirit knows
You need not be alone

The ghost
(The ghost)
The ghost
(The ghost)

While treasures old may turn to dust
We surely must take heed
Extending out our arms to trust
Reward us in good deed
So, live your life for those you love
Relinquish those in debt
And give yourself to care, thereof
Your fate’s not written yet

The ghost
The ghost
Is here to save your soul
The spirit knows
You need not be alone

The ghost of Christmas past is here
