Johnny Cash intro....

"One frozen night in 1914
At the height of WWI
The unthinkable happened
All along the entire western front
The British and German soldiers
Lay down they're weapons
In an unofficial ceast fire
To celebrate Christmas Eve together
They exchanged gifts
And saw each other as brothers
And that piece lasted for two more days
When they were ordered back to battle
In those few days, though
Men remembered the true meaning of christmas
Amongst the devastation
And it's a story that should never be forgotten..."

Through the smoke-filled night
Silence rolls from both sides
Aross a bloody battlefield
It was a cold Christmas Eve
In 1914
For those who were there it seemed unreal
As time was still the Spirit moved the soldiers
To lay down they're arms
Raise they're voice in song
And pretend for awhile
The war was over

If it could happen then
It could happen again
A world torn apart
To join hands and hearts
To celebrate His birth
And peace on this Earth
If for one magic night
We could finally give a reason not to fight
Maybe there's a chance ..
This time it might last

As opposing sides approached
Through broken words they spoke
It wasn't long before they felt at ease
They shared they're cigarettes
What they had they used as gifts
They didn't feel like enemies

With candles lit
They stood shoulder to shoulder
And on that field they found
True common ground
And as they prayed
They dreamed the war was over
If it could happen then
It could happen again
A world torn apart
To join hands and hearts
To celebrate His birth
And peace on this Earth
If for one magic night
We could finally give a reason not to fight
Maybe there's a chance ..
This time it might last

If it could happen then
It could happen again...
