Every year at Christmas
|
All I can see
|
Are pictures of the things I want
|
Around the tree
|
But this year's a little different
|
I'm not thinking of myself
|
So my prayer for this Christmas
|
Is for somebody else
|
|
[Chorus]
|
So I pray...
|
Joy To the World
|
Peace for every boy and girl
|
Hope when life is hard
|
Light when everything seems dark
|
|
God I know you're listening
|
And you can hear
|
The need of every broken heart
|
And all their tears
|
I don't have a lot to offer
|
Just this one simple prayer
|
That this Christmas everyone would know
|
Somebody cares...
|
|
[Chorus]
|
So I pray...
|
Joy To the World
|
Peace for every boy and girl
|
Hope when life is hard
|
Light when everything seems dark
|
|
I pray that every hungry soul
|
Will be filled and will be warm
|
That not a single, solitary child
|
Would suffer harm
|
|
And Lord we find their ending
|
As we take another view
|
My hope is that this Christmas prayer
|
Would somehow come true
|
|
I pray...
|
Humanity would rise
|
And join with me
|
And together we'll sing
|
|
Joy To the World (To all the world)
|
Peace (Peace) for every boy and girl (for every boy and girl)
|
(Talking bout hope) Hope when life is hard (when life is hard)
|
Light when everything seems dark
|
|
I pray that (I pray) every hungry soul
|
Will be filled and will be warm
|
(Not a single child) That not a single, solitary child
|
Would suffer harm
|
|
And Lord we find their ending
|
As we take another view
|
My hope is that this Christmas prayer
|
Would somehow come true...
|
|
Joy To the World
|
Peace for every boy and girl
|
