The Last Blue Christmas - Lyric Video

He was standing to the left of His Father
When he was let in on the plan
He would travel to a town called Nazareth
And pave the path for the Son of Man

He watched as she shared all of her dreams
With the other Galilean girls
Never could she ever have imagined
Her womb would bear the Light of the World

She stifled her scream as he shook her awake
Told her she was chosen but not to be afraid

Now they deck the halls and hang the lights
But they lost sight of the brightest star in the sky
Yet every year they say they hope this was
Finally the last blue Christmas

Nine months later he watched from afar
Under a starry middle-eastern sky
As the maiden who came to trust him
Soothed her newborn’s powerful cries

He stood by that boy as He grew to a man
And finally became ready to implement their plan

Now they decorate the trees with lights
That blinded them to the brightest star in the sky
Yet every year they say they hope this was
Finally the last blue Christmas

He puts his trumpet down with tears in his eyes
As he watched the Message he delivered be crucified
Another year of revelation was
Just another year of hoping for the last blue Christmas

All he wanted was for them to see
They were all they ever needed to finally break free
That boy didn’t come here to redeem sins
But to remind them salvation comes from within

They say the angel is still watching everyone else
Praying they will finally flip the tables themselves

Now the chains they couldn't see have materialized
As they finally lift their heads and open their eyes
Maybe now they’ll finish what He started because
They’re ready for this to be the last blue Christmas

And now they see through the red and green lies
Salvation comes from how He lived and not how He died
So maybe next year we can truly say this was
Finally the last blue Christmas

They say that the angel’s still watching and waiting
For them to decide this will be the last blue Christmas
