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.
