December 1943 |
| The ending of December 1943 |
| Somewhere in the forest |
| The snow was three feet deep |
| Two allied soldiers walking |
| Trying not to freeze |
| Far from home on Christmas Eve |
| A cabin with the light on |
| Brought them to its door |
| A woman said, «In my home |
| You can’t bring in your war |
| So leave your rifles outside |
| Up against a tree |
| There’s peace on Earth on Christmas Eve» |
| And they sat by the fire and they talked all night long |
| Sang Christmas hymns and showed pictures of home |
| In the middle of a great war it’s so hard to believe |
| There’s peace on Earth on Christmas Eve |
| Later in the evening, footsteps in the night |
| Two German soldiers freezing |
| The woman went outside |
| «You're welcome here in my home |
| But your guns will never be |
| There’s peace on Earth on Christmas Eve» |
| The soldiers all were frightened |
| When they stood face to face |
| The woman said, «You're brothers |
| Part of the human race |
| Tonight we’re all just family |
| And we’ll get down on our knees |
| And praise His name on Christmas Eve» |
| And they sat by the fire and the talked all night long |
| Sang Christmas hymns and showed pictures of home |
| In the middle of a great war, bitter enemies |
| Found peace on Earth on Christmas Eve |
| Early that next morning |
| They went their separate ways |
| Shook hands and hugged that woman |
| There on Christmas Day |
