There’s one thing I want for Christmas
It won’t fit underneath the tree
You can’t wrap it up in pretty paper
Or send it special delivery

You can’t buy it in the stores
Or purchase it on-line
Maybe you can’t understand this
Because what I want so hard to find

All I want is peace
Nothing I could ever own
could fill me with the kindness
you have shown.
This Christmas please,
Let us have a little more peace.

I’m not talking silver bells or stockings
Partying into the night
Eggnog, fruitcake, colored lights
All I’m asking is a chance for forgiveness,
Goodwill, cheer and counting our blessings
Set aside your cares for the day
Let joy in your heart, always
All I want is peace before it’s too late
Next year, who will know about our fate?

This Christmas please,
Let us have a little more peace.
