Lyrics
I Pray There’ll Be Joy This Christmas
Snowflakes falling on the window
Coffee warm, but hearts need healing
Trying to find a little peace now
In a world that's always reeling
Sometimes life gets heavy, yeah
And we hide the hurt we carry, yeah
But when I hear those Christmas bells
My spirit lifts, and I can tell…
Light up the night, let hope shine through
Open our hearts like we used to do
Cause Christ was born on a starry night
And his love can still make wrong things right
I pray there will be joy this Christmas
I pray and hope that everyone
Will see the good in each other
And treat everyone like a brother
We’ve been working through the chaos
Broken dreams and quiet sorrows
But tonight lay our pain down
Trade the fear for better tomorrows
From city lights to snowy plains
Let kindness wash away the stains
Of every hurt, and heavy tear
Let this season pull us near, oh yeah
Light up the night, let hope shine through
Open our hearts like we used to do
Cause Christ was born on a starry night
And his love can still make wrong things right
I pray there will be joy this Christmas
I pray and hope that everyone
Will see the good in each other
And treat everyone like a brother
The breath of life was given freely
Grace poured out for you and me
Stop the hurting, fix the broken
Let every heart feel love though unspoken
(Yeah-yeah, mm-mm)
Let peace fall down like snow tonight
Let every lonely heart feel alright
Joy to the world, joy to the world
Joy to the world, joy to the world
Joy to the world, joy to the world
(Oh-ohh… this Christmas)
I pray there will be joy this Christmas
I pray and hope that everyone
Will see the good in each other
And treat everyone like a brother
(Yeah, like a brother, yeah
