Someday at Christmas

Every year it seems, someone comes out with a remake of an older Christmas song that I like. This year, it is Jack Johnson. Here are the lyrics to a remake of a song that Stevie Wonder orignally wrote in 1967 followed by a Youtube audio clip so you can hear the new recording. I love listening to Jack Johnson, and this is a really well written song:


Someday at Christmas, men won't be boys
Playing with bombs like boys play with toys
One warm December, our hearts will see
A world where men are free.

And someday at Christmas, there will be no wars
When we have learned what Christmas is for
When we have found out what life is really worth
Then there will be peace on Earth.

Someday all of our dreams will come to be
Someday in a world where men are free
Maybe not in time for you or for me
But someday at Christmas time.

And someday at Christmas there will be no tears
All men are equal and no men have fears
In one shining moment my heart ran away
From the world that we live in today.

And someday at Christmas, men will not fail
Take all because your love will prevail
Someday in a new world that we can only start
With hope in every heart.

And someday all of our dreams will come to be
Someday in a world where men are free
Maybe not in time for you or for me
But someday at Christmas time.

There will be peace on earth,
I said there will be peace on earth.
