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
