Peace on earth, Goodwill to men
is something we always hear
It's printed on our Christmas cards
that we send out each year
Where is this peace on earth
that never sheds a light
With soldiers that still wonder
how long they have to fight
Some children never know
what Christmas really means
Their parents never tell them
that Santa's just a dream
People always rushing
to get somewhere in time
Never stopping to really listen
to church bells as they chime
Has it been lost to progress
as time does take it's toll
A time of Christ's celebration
are days of long ago
The good of three wise men
is written on streets of gold
The hearts of all who follow
is yet to be disclosed
A silent celebration
is felt in every heart
The mail has once arrived
with writing on the card
Peace on earth at Christmas
we hope you're doing well
Goodwill to all you treasure
.......and only time will tell
