Christmas for the Free

This is the day of Jesus
This is the day of peace
Joy to the world at Christmas, at Christmas
Jesus, this is Christmas for the free

Blunt is the pain of hunger
And cold is the wind of greed
Motherless child has a hard time for comfort
Jesus, this is Christmas for the free

Maybe you'd decide if you'd just stop talking all the while
About the author and the style of your solution, mmm
Look about you, open your heart and let your love grow

I wanna be loved and I can't be crying all the while
Ooh, I need someone to smile for just the feeling, ooh

Joy to the world at Christmas
Love to the folk who came
Meanwhile the promises and bodies are broken
Jesus, bloody in this winter wonderland

Where is the love, Jesus?
Where is the love of peace?
Where are the people who promised us comfort?
Why are they quarrelling their needs?

When this is the day of Jesus
When this is the day of peace
Joy to the world at Christmas time
Jesus, this is Christmas for the free
