The ending of December 1943 Somewhere in the forest The snow was three feet deep Two allied soldiers walking Trying not to freeze Far from home on Christmas Eve A cabin with the light on Brought them to its door A woman said, "In my home You can't bring in your war So leave your rifles outside Up against a tree There's peace on Earth on Christmas Eve" And they sat by the fire and they talked all night long Sang Christmas hymns and showed pictures of home In the middle of a great war it's so hard to believe There's peace on Earth on Christmas Eve Later in the evening, footsteps in the night Two German soldiers freezing The woman went outside "You're welcome here in my home But your guns will never be There's peace on Earth on Christmas Eve" The soldiers all were frightened When they stood face to face The woman said, "You're brothers Part of the human race Tonight we're all just family And we'll get down on our knees And praise His name on Christmas Eve" And they sat by the fire and the talked all night long Sang Christmas hymns and showed pictures of home In the middle of a great war, bitter enemies Found peace on Earth on Christmas Eve Early that next morning They went their separate ways Shook hands and hugged that woman There on Christmas Day
