Echoes in Time
(Gentry, Siregar & Swan)
Stockings by the fireplace, the family at the door embrace,
with the sounds of Christmas, a-playin' on the radio
a-Gingerbread and mistletoe, hot cider in the fallin' snow
with the Christmas lights a-shinin' as bright as the stars
Twas the season for believin', there was singin' with Perry Como
All the children were a -sleepin', sharin' dreams of Christmas morning
Candles round the window sill, a-warmin' from the Christmas chill
We hear the bells a-soundin', their echoes in time
Take us back to Jimmy Stewart, where Bing was singin' Irving
With Macy's parade and the kids a-smilin' on 34th street
When love was alive, we'll never forget the voices that echo in time
Shopping in department stores, a-dancin' on the high school floor
A festive celebration from Heaven above
Twas the season filled with reason, we hear singin' in Beach Boy harmony, ow-ohhhhh ohhhh, bring us back to Christmas Baby
From Rockefeller to Times Square, from Boise to Delaware
Through every generation, echoes in time

Sound the Bells
(Gentry/Siregar)
On a hilltop, high above the city
Sits an empty church where time stands still
Can you see the families all gathered
Years have passed but echos sound
Those memories, they will not be forgotten
We're born again, we're still alive
Lets sound the bells of Christmas
Lets hear the church bells ring, hear them ring
Sound the bells of Christmas
I see them walking, walking up the hillside
And I can see the Shepard standing on that Hill
Sound the bells on Christmas morning
From far away we hear the church bells ringing
Oh they sound throughout the ages and reach beyond the stars
And goes beyond the boundary of your heart
Can you see the little children playing
Hear them laugh, see them smile
The snow is falling on this Christmas morning
So full life, filled with love
Times may change but one things left in common
The church will live in Christ forever
Sound the bells of Christmas
Lets hear the church bells ring, hear them ring
Sound the bells of Christmas
I can see the Shepard standing on that hill
Sound the bells on Christmas morning
Far from away we hear the church bells ringing
Oh they sound throughout the ages and reach beyond the stars
and tolls beyond the boundaries of your heart
Oh they toll throughout the ages and reaches in your heart
and goes beyond the boundaries of the stars

Do You Know It's Christmas
(Gentry/Siregar/Holder/E. Smith)
Do you feel a crispness in the air?
Autumn's past, yet something more is there
Do you know it's Christmas?
Can you feel it's Christmas?
The joyful, loving season we all share
Lights that line the street are dancing bright
Stirring special feelings with the sight
Do you know it's Christmas?
Can you feel it's Christmas?
The stars above are shining bright tonight.
Oh, the winter's come to the meadow lands
As we're gazing out the windows of our home
Watching snowflakes fall in the starlit night
Reflecting all God's love that shines inside.
We cherish every moment on this special day.
This time's a gift from God
Let's share it with everyone along the way.
Hear the church bells sound through the peaceful town
Awakening God's Spirit in each soul.
As the children play on this Christmas Day
We are thankful for the joy we've come to know.
Lights that line the street are dancing bright
Stirring special feelings with the sight
Do you know it's Christmas?
Can you feel it's Christmas?
The stars above are shining bright tonight.
Do you know it's Christmas?
Can you feel it's Christmas?
The stars above are shining bright tonight.

Autumn Passing
(Gentry/Siregar/Holder)
Dried and wind torn, all that once was green
Fallen ground-ward, remnants of their lives
There's no returning for winter is nigh
Autumn Passing
Did I show undying love when paths had crossed my way
Or did I lose that precious time that never comes again
Now they're nowhere to be found
All their dreams have turned to dust
The autumn years pass, taken from our grasp
A light snow's falling which covers barren ground
It brings such beauty, new life to empty souls
Time moves upon us, oh season how they change
I didn't feel the crossing winds which turned the weather vane
They're withdrawn unto themselves in shelter and unknowing
Now they're nowhere to be found
All their dreams have slipped away
The autumn years pass, taken from our grasp
Those who miss that still small voice surly slip away

Fallen Stars
(Gentry)
Where's the love I need to see?
The fallen stars surrounding me
An empty world of hopeless faith
I feel the tears run down my face
I look around, but no one's there
I raise my voice, no one cares
Oh fill the void inside my heart
The rising of the fallen stars
Take me home, ascend my soul
The rising of this fallen star

Christmas Morning
(Gentry/Siregar)
The candles burn this night
Illuminating how we're feeling
His love is present with us
As we worship, as we're singing
Christmas carols fill our world with cheer
Reaching out His Christ child message
We wish this time for us would never end
Yet settle down cause soon comes morning
We close our eyes and know there's
angels watching while we're sleeping
When morning dawns it brings His
gift of life which keeps on giving
Memories bring us back to yesteryear
Frozen moments we have treasured
With visions focused on our families
We gather round on Christmas morning
It's Christmas time in our hearts Lord
The lights are shining, they glow from deep within
Your Son was born this day, we celebrate His birth
The snowflakes fall each one reminds us
of that special feeling of warmth
We're nestled in with fires burning brightly in our hearts
The children rush downstairs to wake us up
They can sense this day has meaning
We wish to feel this way all year round
His gift of love on Christmas morning.

Alabaster
(Gentry/Siregar)
As the cold winds blow
The Children laugh, a time forgotten
Pathway through the clouds
Daylight falls, visions fade
Does He wipe away the tears a-fallin'?
Can He take away the pain within us?
Someday the skies will clear
but I don't know when
Searching through the night
With dimming stars in place of Heaven
We look to find our place
Saddened eyes, ashen skies
Throughout the ages
Visions pass by
Shadows in the light, whispers in the night
Stars will align
We're drawing nearer
Listen inside
Every little step, every little voice
Echoes in time
Waves against the shore
We build our world in alabaster
Resistance from the rains
Worn away, what remains?
Can He hear our voices calling?
Sometimes I think we're all alone
The love we held is gone, in hiding
Can you hear the angels cry?
Now we're left to wonder, why?
