Snow falls quiet on this old back porch
Colored lights glow through the frost on the door
I've been prayin' every night since I was seventeen
For the one You carved with these same two hands for me
I've walked some lonely roads, I've carried scars
But I still hang my hope on that Christmas star
I don't need perfect, just perfect for my soul
Someone to hold when the north wind blows
So I'm wishin' on a shootin' star
That You'll light the way across the dark
Lead her heart to mine like angels led the wise men far
Lord, I trust Your timin', I trust Your plan
You wrote her name before the world began
Bring her home this Christmas
Upon a shootin' star Verse 2
I set two mugs out by the flamin' logs
Left the tree half-dressed like my heart's been all along
One lonely string of lights still waits to shine
Till her laugh fills this house and finishes the night
I ain't askin' for a miracle too tall
Just the girl You've kept through every rise and fall
I've laid my wantin' down at mercy's feet
Believin' You save the best for those who believe Chorus
So I'm wishin' on a shootin' star
That You'll light the way across the dark
Lead her heart to mine like angels led the wise men far
Lord, I trust Your timin', I trust Your plan
You wrote her name before the world began
Bring her home this Christmas
Upon a shootin' star Bridge
Maybe she's out there tonight
Lookin' up at the same sky
Prayin' the same prayer
Under the same Bethlehem air
There goes another shootin' star
Lord, is this the one that's gonna burn that far?
If she's drivin' down some snowy road with my name on her heart
I'll leave the porch light on, the door unlocked
I've been waitin' all my life beneath this clock
Wrap her up in forever
Like the best gift underneath that tree
Thank You for my baby
You brought her here on a shootin' star to me Outro
Snow keeps fallin', lights keep glowin' soft and true
And I'm still believin'
Every promise starts with You
Upon a shootin' star
