Tonight Is Christmas Lyrics - Christmas Songs 2

The factories are all shut down and the shopping malls are all closed 

And the busy streets are all empty except for the falling snow 

And in the small towns, in the cities families gather as one 

'Cause the night of love and sharing they look forward to has come 

'Cause tonight is Christmas, tonight is love 

Tonight we celebrate God's one and only Son 

Tonight there's hope for peace on earth eternally 

Tonight is Christmas and the world's in harmony 

But across the seas two armies stare down at each other's guns 

Each believing in their cause enough to die or kill the other one 

But tonight there'll be no shooting, not a drop of blood will spill 

They will cease their fire this silent night in the name of peace and goodwill 

'Cause tonight is Christmas, tonight is love 

Tonight we celebrate God's one and only Son 

Tonight there's hope for peace on earth eternally 

Tonight is Christmas and the world's in harmony
