Advent Calendar Day #22 -- Some Day at Christmas
While I love traditional carols and fun holiday jingles, I also like songs that challenge us to make the world better. This Stevie Wonder classic is one of those. It feels especially appropriate as we are struggling with the dichotomy of pain and joy of this particular season. And I wish it now more than ever for these two brown-eyed beauties.So my wish for someday at Christmas...Someday at Christmas men won't be boysPlaying with bombs like kids play with toysOne warm December our hearts will seeA world where men are freeSomeday at Christmas there'll be no warsWhen we have learned what Christmas is forWhen we have found what life's really worthThere'll be peace on earthSomeday all our dreams will come to beSomeday in a world where men are freeMaybe not in time for you and meBut someday at ChristmastimeSomeday at Christmas we'll see a landWith no hungry children, no empty handsOne happy morning people will shareA world where people careSomeday at Christmas there'll be no tearsWhen all men are equal and no man has fearsOne shining moment, one prayer awayFrom our world todaySomeday all our dreams will come to beSomeday in a world where men are freeMaybe not in time for you and meBut someday at ChristmastimeSomeday at Christmas man will not failHate would be gone and love will prevailSomeday a new world that we can startWith hope in every heartSomeday all our dreams will come to beSomeday in a world where men are freeMaybe not in time for you and meBut someday at ChristmastimeSomeday at Christmastime[ From: http://www.elyrics.net ]Three days left to go...
