In the midst of artificial holiday cheer
avoid deep drifts of aggravation,
the freeze of frustration,
slippery confusion.
There's relief for weary travelers;
Your Father invites you to come.
The Cross road is the way
And His love is the Son.
More than shelter from winter's assault
Faith conquers life's trials;
Walk in confidence, sing for joy,
Jesus Christ is real.
