Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Rudolph was born in winter’s hush
With a nose that burned like morning blush
The others laughed, they turned away
They couldn’t see his light that day

[Verse 2]
He wandered far through snow and storm
A glowing heart, a fragile form
He dreamed of skies he’d never flown
Of guiding paths he’d never known

[Verse 3]
Then came the night the stars went blind
The winds grew wild, the sleigh behind
And Santa cried, “We’ve lost the way!”
But Rudolph’s glow refused to sway

[Verse 4]
He rose above the doubt and shame
He lit the dark, he earned his name
And every reindeer bowed in grace
To Rudolph’s fire, to Rudolph’s face

[Pre-Chorus]
He wasn’t built to blend or hide
He was the spark the storm denied
He was the flame the cold forgot
The light that burned when hope was not

[Chorus / Hook]
Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer
Shined through the longest night
Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer
Turned every wrong to right

[Bridge – Drop Lead-In]
They called him strange, they called him wrong
But he became the winter song
He flew through doubt, he flew through fear
And made the path for every year

[Final Hook – Full Ensemble]
Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer
The one they cast aside
Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer
Now leads the world with pride
