Array of Lights Songtext
von Damian Wilson

As a small child
On the cusp of Christmas Day
I rose from my bed
And hearing Santa's sleigh
Following the noise
I hurried down the stairs
To see my father
His hands were open there

With an array of light
A glittering assortment of tiny balls
Standing in his side
My father's face, it glowed


Every year the same
Reaching from a chair
He'd decorate the room
Covering all that's there
And as a child I grew
To then become a man
Offspring at my feet
I'd congratulate my dad

On his array of light
A glittering assortment of tiny balls
Standing in his side
My father's face would glow

With an array of light
A glittering assortment of tiny balls
Not until that time
Did Christmas truly show

Then one time he fell
And never was the same
Before the year was out
I felt my whole world change
On the way to church
Short of midnight, Christmas Eve
The youngest in the car
Points and says to me


What an array of light
A glittering assortment of tiny balls
Granddad's in the sky
Showing God where they all go

With his array of light
A glittering assortment of tiny balls
Standing there that night
I felt my father's glow

With an array of light
Making Christmas glow
With an array of light
Making Christmas glow
