Symphonic Christmas (The Spirit Awakes)

Instead of relying on familiar pop classics, this album blends festive melodies with the emotional power of symphonic rock – epic, moving, and majestic all at once.

The 15 songs combine orchestral soundscapes with rock guitars and choirs to create a unique, cinematic sound experience. Alongside powerful original compositions, you’ll find reinterpretations of classics like „Silent Night,“ „O Holy Night,“ and „Joy to the World.“

Lyrics

Silent Night (Symphonic Rock Version)

Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin, Mother and Child
Holy infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

Silent night, holy night
Shepherds quake at the sight
Glories stream from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia
Christ the Savior is born
Christ the Savior is born

Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

Winterstorm

Shadows rise, the night grows cold
Whispers echo, stories untold
Frozen skies, the silence breaks
As the storm begins to wake

Winds are calling, voices cry
Through the darkness, hear them fly

Winterstorm, raging high
Fire and thunder in the sky
Carry me through endless night
Till the morning brings the light

Snow and fire, a clash of fate
Time is fleeting, none can wait
Through the storm, I’ll stand and fight
Guided by the northern light

Winds are calling, voices cry
Through the darkness, hear them fly

Winterstorm, raging high
Fire and thunder in the sky
Carry me through endless night
Till the morning brings the light

Winterstorm, raging high
Fire and thunder in the sky
Carry me through endless night
Till the morning brings the light

O Holy Night (Symphonic Rock Version)

Holy night, the stars are brightly shining
It is the night of a Savior’s birth
Long lay the world in shadows and waiting
Till hope appeared, and love touched the earth

A thrill of hope, the weary heart rejoices
For dawn now breaks, a new and glorious morn

Fall to your knees, hear the angel voices
O night divine, O night when light was born
O night divine, O holy night, O night divine

Frozen Stars

Frozen stars across the night
Guiding flames of silver light
Through the dark the echoes call
Rise again, we won’t fall

Shining bright, in endless skies
Hope will burn, it never dies

Frozen stars, forever gleaming
Through the storm our hearts are dreaming
Light the way, ignite the fire
Frozen stars will lift us higher

Winter winds and shadows near
Still our voices conquer fear
Through the night our anthem flies
Frozen stars will never die

Shining bright, in endless skies
Hope will burn, it never dies

Frozen stars, forever gleaming
Through the storm our hearts are dreaming
Light the way, ignite the fire
Frozen stars will lift us higher

Frozen stars, forever gleaming
Through the storm our hearts are dreaming
Light the way, ignite the fire
Frozen stars will lift us higher

Carol of the Bells (Symphonic Rock Version)

Hear all the bells, ringing the night
Voices of hope, shining with light

Ring through the night, oh carol of chimes
Guiding the world with heavenly rhymes

Echoes of joy, calling so clear
Songs of the winter, Christmas is near

Ring through the night, oh carol of chimes
Guiding the world with heavenly rhymes

Glorious sound, forever it swells
Sing to the heavens, carol of bells

Midwinter Dreams

Whispers in the frozen air
Shadows fall, the night is bare
Dreams of fire, fading slow
In the silence, embers glow

Through the darkness, light will rise
Hope is shining in the skies

Midwinter dreams, carry me home
Through endless night, I’m not alone
Frozen skies, yet stars will gleam
Guide me through these midwinter dreams

Echoes drift on winds so deep
Silent hearts no longer sleep
From the ashes, voices sing
Winter holds a secret spring

Through the darkness, light will rise
Hope is shining in the skies

Midwinter dreams, carry me home
Through endless night, I’m not alone
Frozen skies, yet stars will gleam
Guide me through these midwinter dreams

Midwinter dreams, carry me home
Through endless night, I’m not alone
Frozen skies, yet stars will gleam
Guide me through these midwinter dreams

God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen (Symphonic Rock Version)

Rest now, merry gentlemen
Let nothing bring dismay
Remember that our savior
Was born on Christmas day

To guide us all through shadowed paths
And light the frozen way

Sing tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Sing tidings of comfort and joy

Fear not, the angels whispered
Let nothing bring you fright
This day a savior rises
A star of holy light

To guide us all through shadowed paths
And light the frozen way

Sing tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Sing tidings of comfort and joy

O Come, O Come, Emmanuel (Symphonic Rock Version)

O come, O come Emmanuel
And guide your people, Israel
Through lonely nights and shadowed ways
Bring hope to hearts in these cold days

Rejoice, rejoice, the dawn will rise
And light will shine in darkest skies

O come, O come Emmanuel
And with your light all fear dispel
Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel
Shall come to us, Emmanuel

O come, bright Star of endless night
And break the chains of fear and fright
Restore our hearts, renew the flame
And lift the world in your great name

Rejoice, rejoice, the dawn will rise
And light will shine in darkest skies

O come, O come Emmanuel
And with your light all fear dispel
Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel
Shall come to us, Emmanuel

O come, O come Emmanuel
And with your light all fear dispel
Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel
Shall come to us, Emmanuel

Christmas Requiem

Midnight falls, the candles fade
Echoes whisper through the nave
Shadows sing where angels weep
Winter holds the world asleep

In this silence, hear the call
Through the darkness, through it all

Christmas requiem, bells are crying
Through the snow where hope is dying
Light the flames, defy the night
Bring us back to holy light

Frozen hearts and empty halls
Silent prayers on broken walls
Tears of frost on shattered glass
Waiting for the storm to pass

In this silence, hear the call
Through the darkness, through it all

Christmas requiem, bells are crying
Through the snow where hope is dying
Light the flames, defy the night
Bring us back to holy light

Christmas requiem, bells are crying
Through the snow where hope is dying
Light the flames, defy the night
Bring us back to holy light

Hark! The Herald Angels Sing (Symphonic Rock Version)

Hark, the herald angels sing
Glory to the newborn King
Peace on earth and mercy mild
Hope reborn for every child

Joyful voices fill the sky
Singing praise from high on high

Glory, glory, hear them sing
Songs of light for Christ the King
Joyful hearts and bells that ring
Hark, the herald angels sing

Risen hope and shining flame
Every soul shall praise His name
Born to lift the world again
Songs of joy through every land

Joyful voices fill the sky
Singing praise from high on high

Glory, glory, hear them sing
Songs of light for Christ the King
Joyful hearts and bells that ring
Hark, the herald angels sing

Gloria in Excelsis

Snow has fallen, night is gone
Shadows fade before the dawn
Hearts awaken, voices rise
Light is born in winter skies

Hear the trumpets, hear the drums
Sing of hope, the new day comes

Gloria, in excelsis
Raise your voice and sing with fire
Gloria, in excelsis
Lift the world and take us higher

Tears are melting into flame
Broken hearts are whole again
Stars are shining, bells resound
Joy and love are all around

Hear the trumpets, hear the drums
Sing of hope, the new day comes

Gloria, in excelsis
Raise your voice and sing with fire
Gloria, in excelsis
Lift the world and take us higher

Gloria, in excelsis
Raise your voice and sing with fire
Gloria, in excelsis
Lift the world and take us higher
Gloria, Gloria
In excelsis

Campana sobre campana (Spanish Christmas Rock Version)

Campana sobre campana
Y sobre campana una
Asómate a la ventana
Verás al Niño en la cuna

Belén, campanas de Belén
Que los ángeles cantando están
Que los cielos responden con eco celestial

Campana sobre campana
Y sobre campana dos
Asómate a la ventana
Porque ha nacido Dios

Belén, campanas de Belén
Que los ángeles cantando están
Que los cielos responden con eco celestial

Belén, campanas de Belén
Que los ángeles cantando están
Que los cielos responden con eco celestial

Joy to the World (Symphonic Rock Version)

Joy to the world, the Lord has come
Let earth receive her King
Let every heart prepare Him room
And heaven and nature sing
And heaven and nature sing

Sing joy, sing joy, sing joy to the world
Let every voice proclaim
Sing joy, sing joy, sing joy to the world
Forever praise His name

Joy to the world, the light will shine
And hearts will sing again
The fields and floods, the rocks and hills
Repeat the sound of joy
Repeat the sound of joy

Sing joy, sing joy, sing joy to the world
Let every voice proclaim
Sing joy, sing joy, sing joy to the world
Forever praise His name

Sing joy, sing joy, sing joy to the world
