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

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...

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 fed and will be warm

That not a single solitary child

Would suffer harm

And wars would 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

Woah, woah

Joy [To the World] To all the world

Peace for every boy and girl

Talking ‘bout hope when life is hard

Light when everything seems dark

I pray that every hungry soul

Will be fed and will be warm

That not a single solitary child

Would suffer harm

And Lord, we find their ending

As we take another view

So now my hope is that this Christmas prayer

Would somehow come true

Joy To the World

Peace for every boy and girl
