Return To Paradise, Myrrh
Words and Music by Randy Stonehill
It was a few nights before Christmas and I was sit-
ting in my car at a busy intersection. As I waited
for the light to change I glanced over at the Denny's
restaurant on the corner. I could see lonely looking
people at their separate tables, chain smoking ciga-
rettes as they sat hunched over their "bottomless
cups" of coffee. I knew that was where some of
them would be spending Christmas. I wrote this
song thinking about what Jesus might say or do if
He was sitting with those people.
