Tonight Is Christmas

The factories are shut down

The shopping malls are all closed

The busy streets are empty

Except for the falling snow

And in the small towns and the cities

Families gather as one

'Cause the night of love and sharing

They've looked forward to has come

Tonight is Christmas, tonight is love

Tonight we celebrate God's one and only Son

Tonight, there's hope for peace on Earth eternally

Tonight is Christmas, and the world's in harmony

But across the sea, two armies

Stare down at each other's guns

Each believing in their cause enough

To die or kill the other one

But tonight, there'll be no shooting

Not a drop of blood will spill

They'll cease their fire this silent night

In the name of peace and goodwill

Tonight is Christmas, tonight is love

Tonight we celebrate God's one and only Son

Tonight there's hope for peace on Earth eternally

Tonight is Christmas, and the world's in harmony
