The sounds of Christmas fill the air, the shouts of girls and boys The silver bells and all the noels make a joyful night But once the choirs quiet down and sing their last 'Amen' What happens then? What happens then? If you hold your breath and listen You might finally find what your world's been missing Peace, heavenly peace In between your own heart's beating There's a quiet voice that keeps repeating Peace, heavenly peace And it's all about peace can be found on a mountain top or an avenue In the silent night, in the light of day, in the way I feel when I'm with you I don't need satin balls and tissue Not to wrap the gift that I want to wish you peace I wish you peace, heavenly peace Like the warming glow of the morning sun There is enough for everyone In the precious time we're given What I wouldn't give if we could only live in peace I wish you peace, let there be peace Glorious peace, heavenly peace May your blessings multiply, may your bounty never cease And may you sleep in heavenly peace
