Come rest you weary gentlemen. let nothing you dismay. lay down your swords and fight no more. for the sake of Christmas Day. A saviour came down to this earth. to show us everyone. how to live in harmony. together under the sun. Beyond the dark horizon. Lies a far more bountiful land. Void of all starvation. For every woman and man.. so reach out from the wilderness. and pray to heaven above. a future lies in wait for us. a world united in love. We don't need a merry Christmas. we don't need a Happy New Year. the only wish on Santa's list. is that one day there will be. peace on this earth. Through the valleys. over the hills. church bells echo their sound. whispers travelling through the trees. over the snow covered ground. spread the message far and wide. so every one can hear. home fires glow on angel wings. and banishes every tear. We don't need a merry Christmas. we don't need a Happy New Year. the only wish on Santa's list. is that one day there will be. peace on this earth. Grant us .. one wish. no more .. pain or sorrow. hear us .. help us. build a new tommorrow. So reach out from the wilderness. and pray to heaven above. a future lies in wait for us. a world united in love. We don't need a merry Christmas. we don't need a Happy New Year. the only wish on Santa's list. is that one day there will be. No more tears or pain at Christmas. no more children living in fear. the only wish on Santa's list. is that one day there will be. one day there will be. one day there will be. peace on this earth. Grant us .. our wish this Christmas
