At an antique desk An old man sits alone It's Christmas Eve And it's almost time to go He signs his name to a letter he just wrote Then he reads it back with a voice as soft as snow Chorus: I want peace on earth for Christmas In a world where there's not one hungry child They would hope and faith Conquers fear and hate All I'm asking for is a little more love Then he walks outside And he climbs up on his sleigh And calls out to his reindeer Off they fly away Oh tonight he'll make a million dreams appear While he wishes that his own dreams would come true this year Repeat Chorus That they would hope and faith Conquers fear and hate All I'm asking for is a little more love
