The garment of life, be it Amtattered and torn
The D7cloak of the soldier is Gwithered and worn
But Emwhat child is this that was Ampoverty-born
The D7peace of Christmas GDay
CHORUS (same pattern as verses):
The branch that bears the bright holly
The dove that rests in yonder tree
The light that shines for all to see
The peace of Christmas Day
Verse 2:
The hope that has slumbered for 2000 years
The promise that silenced 1000 fears
A faith that can hobble an ocean of tears
The peace of Christmas Day
(chorus)
Verse 3:
Add all the grief that people may bear
Total the strife, the troubles and care
Put them in columns and leave them right there
The peace of Christmas Day
(chorus twice; 2nd time, decelerate on last line)
