The Christmas Wish (Wheetman)

                      I don't know if you believe in Christmas,
                 or if you have presents underneath the Christmas tree.
                But if you believe in love, that will be more than enough
                       for you to come and celebrate with me.

                   For I have held the precious gift that love brings
                     even though I've never saw a Christmas star.
                  But I know there is a light, I have felt it burn inside,
                         and I can see it shining from afar.

          Christmas is a time to come together, a time to put all differences aside.
                     And I reach out my hand to the family of man 
                       to share the joy I feel at Christmas time.

         For the truth that binds us all together, I would like to say a simple prayer.
                That at this special time, you will have true peace of mind
                     and love to last throughout the coming year.

                And if you believe in love, that will be more than enough
                     for peace to last throughout the coming year.
                   And peace on earth will last throughout the year.
