Intro: D A/C# Bm G D
D
It was Christmas Eve in the snowbound west
A/C#
I was ridin' alone, just a man and his vest
Bm
Stars were shining, the air was cold
G
When I heard a cry from the canyon below
D
There he was, a colt so young
A/C#
A broken leg and his hope undone
Bm
But his eyes still burned like a midnight flame
G
And I knew right then, he'd be saved again
A
Oh, miracles ride on Christmas night
G
When hearts are strong, and the stars shine bright
A
With a little faith and a helping hand
G
We can heal the broken in this promised land
D G D
Oh-oh, oh-oh, a Christmas ride tonight!
D
I took him home to the old red barn
A/C#
Wrapped him up safe from the winter's harm
Bm
Grandpa's words rang in my mind
G
(The spirit of Christmas is the healing kind.)
D
I worked through the night with my hands and soul
A/C#
Bound his leg, set a brand-new goal
Bm
By morning light, he took a stand
G
With wobbly steps, he touched my hand
A
Oh, miracles ride on Christmas night
G
When hearts are strong, and the stars shine bright
A
With a little faith and a helping hand
G
We can heal the broken in this promised land
D G D
Oh-oh, oh-oh, a Christmas ride tonight!
Solo D A A/C# Bm G D A/C# Bm G
D
Then came a sound from the northern wind
A/C#
A jingle of bells and a laugh that grinned
Bm
There stood Santa with his sleigh and crew
G
(My friend, we've got work for you!)
D
The colt stood tall, his spirit ablaze
A/C#
Santa smiled, (This is Christmas grace.)
Bm
We hitched him up, and away we flew
G
Through the starry night, spreading dreams anew
A
Oh, miracles ride on Christmas night
G
When hearts are strong, and the stars shine bright
A
With a little faith and a helping hand
G
We can heal the broken in this promised land

Oh-oh, oh-oh, a Christmas ride tonight!

As the morning broke on a peaceful town

Joy had spread, and love came down

That colt now runs with a spirit high

A Christmas miracle beneath the western sky
