Heaven’s Got a Front Porch Light
🎵 **Heaven’s Got a Front Porch Light** *(Upbeat country-gospel tempo, 4/4, bright fiddle and steel guitar; joyful female lead with gospel harmonies.)* --- **Intro** (*fiddle riff, tambourine tapping*) Snow’s comin’ down and the stars are bright, There’s a front porch light burnin’ high tonight! --- **Verse 1** Mama’s got cider and Daddy’s got song, The church bell’s ringin’ all the folks along. The old pine tree’s shinin’ silver and gold, And the story gets better every time it’s told! --- **Chorus** 🎶 *Heaven’s got a front porch light,* _Shinin’ for the lost and the weary tonight._ _When the cold wind blows and the dark sets in,_ _That glow says, “Child, come on in!”_ *Heaven’s got a front porch light,* _And it’s burnin’ through the Christmas night!_ 🎶 --- **Verse 2** Neighbors all laughin’ and singin’ in time, Grandpa’s hummin’ “Auld Lang Syne.” Little feet dancin’ where the firelight glows, And joy’s overflowin’ like fresh-fallin’ snow. --- **Chorus** 🎶 *Heaven’s got a front porch light,* _Shinin’ for the lost and the weary tonight._ _When the cold wind blows and the dark sets in,_ _That glow says, “Child, come on in!”_ *Heaven’s got a front porch light,* _And it’s burnin’ through the Christmas night!_ 🎶 --- **Bridge** (*fiddle solo → key change → handclaps rise*) Raise your hands, don’t you feel that cheer? Grace is singin’, “We made it through another year!” From the barn to the sky, let the hallelujahs ring— Even angels dance when the cowbells sing! --- **Final Chorus** 🎶 *Heaven’s got a front porch light,* _Shinin’ for the lost and the weary tonight._ _If you’re cold or tired, don’t stay outside,_ _There’s room by the fire, and your heart can hide._ *Heaven’s got a front porch light,* _And it’s burnin’ through the Christmas night!_ 🎶 --- **Outro** (*steel guitar outro, fading fiddle*) Snow’s still fallin’, soft and white— But Heaven’s porch light’s burnin’ bright.
