Lyrics
VERSE 1:
All across the Western Front Were the sounds of human strife Shots fired, hope expired
In the frozen night
As the moon rose high on Christmas Eve The eerie sounds of silence
Fell across the battlefield
As song replaced the violence
BRIDGE:
A world war could not destroy The spirit of peace and joy
CHORUS:
If we did it back then, we can do it again Singing peace is for one and for all
If we did it back then, we can do it again Singing peace is for one and for all
VERSE 2:
Christmas carols heard all around Sung from other lands
Music was the common ground While guns were left unmanned
Bitter foe were instant friends
As soldiers crossed the lines Outstretched hands in no-man’s land A truce for humankind
