The Wind Keeps Blowing - Anonymous

Through the trees the wind keeps blowing,
In our homes we sense its might.
Will the Holy Saint keep going,
Will he make it through the night?
Will he make it through the night.

Yes he overcomes the darkness,
On his horse so fierce and fast.
When he learns we long for his presence,
The Good Saint will come at last.
The Good Saint will come at last.
