The days are getting cold
It's warm inside our homes
Family drawing near
Christmas time is here
So I'll say 'Merry Christmas', I'll wish peace to you
I'll hope for the hopeless, your dreams come true
And I'll pray for the laughter, I'll sing through the tears
I'll say 'Merry Christmas', for all the world to hear
The smell of evergreen
A wooden manger scene
A starry night so clear
Christmas time is here
So I'll say 'Merry Christmas', I'll wish peace to you
I'll hope for the hopeless, your dreams come true
And I'll pray for the laughter, I'll sing through the tears
I'll say 'Merry Christmas', for all the world to hear
So for a moment now
Let's lay our weapons down
When our walls disappear
Christmas time is here
So I'll say 'Merry Christmas', I'll wish peace to you
I'll hope for the hopeless, your dreams come true
And I'll pray for the laughter, I'll sing through the tears
I'll say 'Merry Christmas', for all the world to hear
So I'll say 'Merry Christmas', I'll wish peace to you
I'll hope for the hopeless, your dreams come true
And I'll pray for the laughter, I'll sing through the tears
I'll say 'Merry Christmas', for all the world to hear
