the land of christmas (mary)

take me into your hands

make me into your prayer

take me away to the land of christmas

and dismiss my fear

show me the way

you see i need a way to pass

through the pain

breathe it and bear it and rise up again

take me away to the land of christmas

where i can receive your kiss

feel the strength in my heart

and wail like a baby

and sail through the storm

be tender as mary

with her newborn son

is feeling small a very good thing?

is feeling big really very small?

take me away to the land of christmas

where i won't question your love at all

and when i kneel to you

it doesn't mean i'll get the message right

take me away to the land of christmas

where i can't resist surrendering

and i'll wail like a baby

and sail through the storm

be tender like mary

with her newborn son

on christmas morn

tender as mary

with her newborn son
