Trucks cooled off but I just sit
Windows down with a peppermint stick
The Bible open to Luke real wide
Underneath the moon in a silent sky

Midnight clear on Second Creek Road
Snow layin' light on the winter road
A prayer rolls slow on my lips tonight
For peace and hope in the porch light
A baby born in a manger far
Feels real close from the soul park car
The world don't feel so broke
In the midnight clear on Second Creek Road

The barn light hums, the cattle sleep
I can hear the cows past the creek
Mama's wreath is hanging proud
With the same red bow she passed down

Midnight clear on Second Creek Road
The kind of calm only the Lord knows
The animals hush as a saint's leaning
Like it's listening in Bethlehem again
No gold, no frankincense here to show
Just diesel hands and a heart to know
Grace and gravel and snow
On a midnight clear on Second Creek Road

I've seen hard days
Lost some time
But tonight I feel
His hand in mine
No church wall
No steeple bell
Just heaven's hush
And a holy spell

Midnight clear on Second Creek Road
Where God walks slow and the story's grow
With every flake and breath I see
Still shows up for folks like me
So I'll keep this moment deep and slow
Like a hymn sung soft and freshly snow
'Til the sun rise starts to glow
In the midnight clear on Second Creek Road

Second Creek Road
