A ring of wood, four candles tall
A crown of fir upon the door
Pine knotted branches interweave
Red ribbon, Laurel... Holly leaf
For Christ's soon return we are bown
Symbol of victory the crown
Spherical... ethereal glow
"Crown of Thorns" ribboned-blood now flows
Four advent weeks, the four seasons
Four cardinal virtues... the reason
Bright flames bring Christmas peace and hope
Evergreens... sign of life and hope
Evergreens.... God's eternity
Laurel... thwarts sin and suffering
Holly... the thorns which Christ endured
Strong Fir trees... in God we're assured
Again we await Christ the King
Forgiveness, faith, joy and teachings;
Each candle we burn represents
On the sacred wreath of Advent
