Lyrics

Sue Peters (c) 2020

In the spirit of the holidays, let’s wish each other well
No one knows what lies ahead, only time will tell

In the spirit of the holidays, let’s try to get along
Put aside our differences, work together to be strong

Peace on earth, goodwill to all that lasts throughout the year
Anything is possible, if we persevere

In the spirit of the holidays, let your little light shine bright
A beacon in the darkness, comfort in the night

In the spirit of the holidays, let’s wish each other well
No one knows what lies ahead, only time will tell

The Story Behind the Song

While the holiday season comes but once a year, the spirit of the season should live on for the entire year. That’s the message of 'In The Spirit of The Holidays' our holiday single.  

The song was written during the lockdown of 2020. Sue was reflecting on how the world had changed unexpectedly and that for most, there would not be the usual get-togethers of family and friends over the holidays. Many of us were understandably disheartened at the prospect. But it was also a reminder that the spirit of the holidays… peace, caring and compassion… can carry on and are needed all year around because we never know what lies ahead.

The song brings together a number musical elements to convey its message. Seasonal clavinet and bells blend with guitars, accordion and our harmonies. For 2022, we also created a new fresh remix of the song.   

Celebrate the Spirit of the Holidays…peace on earth, goodwill to all that lasts throughout the year.
