On Christmas Night
A baby is sleeping in the tinsel,
A candle glows weakly in the light,
The sleigh bells are drowning out the angels,
On Christmas night.
An orphan forgets his life of squalor,
A ragged girl looks for something bright,
A foreman gives out an extra Dollar
On Christmas night.
A prisoner feels starlight in the darkness,
An exile is home and all feels right,
The world for a moment is united
On Christmas night.
