Johnny Cash intro....
"One frozen night in 1914, at the height of WWI, the unthinkable happened. All along the entire western front, the British and German soldiers lay down they're weapons in an unofficial ceast fire to celebrate Christmas Eve together. They exchanged gifts and saw each other as brothers. And that piece lasted for two more days, when they were ordered back to battle. In those few days, though, men remembered the true meaning of christmas amongst the devastation, and it's a story that should never be forgotten..." Through the smoke-filled night Silence rolls from both sides Aross a bloody battlefield It was a cold Christmas Eve In 1914 For those who were there it seemed unreal As time was still the Spirit moved the soldiers To lay down they're arms Raise they're voice in song And pretend for awhile The war was over If it could happen then, It could happen again A world torn apart To join hands and hearts To celebrate His birth And peace on this Earth If for one magic night We could finally give a reason not to fight Maybe there's a chance .. This time it might last As opposing sides approached Through broken words they spoke It wasn't long before they felt at ease They shared they're cigarettes What they had they used as gifts They didn't feel like enemies. With candles lit, They stood shoulder to shoulder And on that field they found True common ground And as they prayed They dreamed the war was over If it could happen then, It could happen again A world torn apart To join hands and hearts To celebrate His birth And peace on this Earth If for one magic night We could finally give a reason not to fight Maybe there's a chance .. This time it might last If it could happen then, It could happen again... |

Away in a manger, no crib for a bed,
The little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head, The stars in the sky looked down where he lay, The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay The cattle are lowing, the poor baby wakes, But little Lord Jesus no crying he makes I love thee, Lord Jesus, look down from the sky, And stay by my credo 'til morning is nigh Be near me, Lord Jesus, I ask thee to stay Close by me forever, and love me, I pray Bless all the dear children in my tender care, And take us to Heaven, to live with thee there |

The sun is shining the grass is green
The orange and palm trees sway There's never been such a day In Beverly Hills, LA But it's December the 24th And I'm longing to be up north. I'm dreaming of a white Christmas, Just like the ones I used to know. Where the tree-tops glisten, And children listen To hear sleighbells in the snow. I'm dreaming of a white Christmas, With every Christmas card I write, "May your days be merry and bright, And may all your Christmases be white". I'm dreaming of a white Christmas, Just like the ones I used to know. Where the tree-tops glisten, And children listen To hear sleighbells in the snow. I'm dreaming of a white Christmas, With every Christmas card I write, "May your days be merry and bright, And may all your Christmases be white". |

Sleigh bells ring, are you list'ning?
In the lane, snow is glist'ning' A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight Walkin' in a winter wonderland Gone away is the blue bird Here to stay is a new bird He sings a love song as we go along Walkin' in a winter wonderland In the meadow we can build a snowman Then pretend that he is Parson Brown He'll say "Are you married?" We'll say "No, man! But you can do the job when you're in town Later on we'll conspire as we dream by the fire To face unafraid, the plans that we've made Walkin' in a winter wonderland In the meadow we can build a snowman And pretend that he's a circus clown We'll have lot's of fun with Mr. Snowman Until the other kiddies knock him down When it snows ain't it thrillin'? Though your nose gets a chillin' We'll frolic and play the Eskimo way Walkin' in a winter wonderland Walkin' in a winter wonderland |

O holy night
The stars are brightly shining It is the night of our dear Savior's birth Long lay the world in sin and error pining 'Til He appeared and the soul felt its worth A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn Fall on your knees O hear the angel voices O night divine O night when Christ was born O night divine O night, O night divine Truly He taught us to love one another His law is love and His gospel is peace Chains shall He break, for the slave is our brother And in His name all oppression shall cease Sweet hymns of joy in greatful chorus raise we Let all within us praise His holy name Christ is the Lord O praise His name forever His power and glory ever more proclaim His power and glory ever more proclaim Fall on your knees O hear the angel voices His power and glory ever more proclaim O night divine O night when Christ was born His power and glory ever more proclaim |
