Snow Rescue

The first snow falls from silent heights,
Softly drifting to the ground.
Every moment feels like flight,
I hear the breath of snow around.

Snowflakes falling from the skies,
Like white angels in their flight,
Bringing wonders as they rise,
Dancing in the winter light.

Chorus

First snow, come and rescue me,
Drive my silent grief away.
Let above the Earth forever
Songs of love be heard and stay.

2

Every angel falling down,
Sacrificing shining grace,
Came to save the sinful ground
With a white and gentle lace.

Covering the dark and wrong
Drowning in the autumn mire,
Giving warmth and light and song
Even as they lose their fire.

Chorus

First snow, come and rescue me,
Drive my silent grief away.
Let above the Earth forever
Songs of love be heard and stay.

3

Millions of pure souls descend
Falling silently from high,
Washing sorrow to its end
From the earth and from the sky.

Snow will hide the world in white,
Wake it from the autumn gloom,
Fill the fading world with light
Lead us all to life renewed.

Chorus

First snow, come and rescue me,
Drive my silent grief away.
Let above the Earth forever
Songs of love be heard and stay.
