A Candy Cane for Christmas

It’s the shape of a Shepherd’s staff
With a sweet taste that makes us laugh
We hang them on a Christmas tree
Stir one in a mug of tea
Colored in red, colored in white
To remind us Jesus came and why

Lord I’m hanging candy canes for Christmas for you
Lord I’m hanging candy canes for Christmas

Turn it upside down J’s for Jesus
The one who lived then died for us
Born to Mary in stable
Carried His cross ‘til no longer able
He’s my Savior, He’s my brother
Baby Jesus there’s no other

Lord I’m hanging candy canes for Christmas for you
Lord I’m hanging candy canes for Christmas

With glowing canes out on the lawn
The house is filled with Christmas songs
Like silent night and bringing cheer
And good tidings for the coming year
We are filled with joy, we are filled with light
That can only come from the love of Christ

Lord I’m hanging candy canes for Christmas for you
Lord I’m hanging candy canes for Christmas

Lord I’m hanging candy canes for Christmas
