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

God I know ur 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 everone would know
Somebody cares

So I pray...
Joy to the world
Peace for every boy and girl
Hope when life is hard
Light when every thing seems dark

I pray that every hungery soul
Will be filled and will be warm
That not a single, solitary child would suffer harm
And Lord we find their endings
As we take another view
My hope is that this Christmas prayer
Would some how come true

I pray
Humanity would rise
Ang join with me
And togather we'll sing
