REBA MCENTIRE lyrics - A Christmas Letter

(Gene Nelson/John Greenebaum/Paul Nelson)



At an antique desk

An old man sits alone

It's Christmas Eve

And it's almost time to go



He signs his name to a letter he just wrote

Then he reads it back with a voice as soft as snow



I want peace on earth for Christmas

In a world where there's not one hungry child

They would hope and faith

Conquers fear and hate

All I'm asking for is a little more love



Then he walks outside

And he climbs up on his sleigh

And calls out to his reindeer

Off they fly away

Oh tonight he'll make a million dreams appear

While he wishes that his own dreams would come true this year



I want peace on earth for Christmas

In a world where there's not one hungry child

They would hope and faith

Conquers fear and hate

All I'm asking for is a little more love



That they would hope and faith

Conquers fear and hate

All I'm asking for is a little more love
