Lyrics
Be kind to one another, and don't give in to fear
That's all that I am asking for, for Christmastime this year
We’ve had enough of fighting, and dying in the streets
For Christmas, I just want a little peace
Be blind to one another, the differences are small
We all have got a cross to bear, we all have got our faults
For once when we’re affronted, can we turn the other cheek?
For Christmas, I just want a little peace
And if the fates should bless us with a moment of reprieve
We all could stand together, in the silence, and just breathe
Rejoice for all the happiness, mourn for all the grief
That’s all that I am asking for, this lonely Christmas eve
Let’s shine on one another, the light that we have saved
So jealously we’ve guarded for the coming rainy days
If only for a moment, we can make the darkness cease
For Christmas, I just want a little peace
For Christmas, I just want a little peace
