Peace Carol Lyrics

The garment of life, be it tattered and tornThe cloak of the soldier is withered and wornBut what child is this that was poverty-bornThe peace of Christmas DayCHORUS:The branch that bears the bright hollyThe dove that rests in yonder treeThe light that shines for all to seeThe peace of Christmas DayVerse 2:The hope that has slumbered for 2000 yearsThe promise that silenced 1000 fearsA faith that can hobble an ocean of tearsThe peace of Christmas Day(chorus)Verse 3:Add all the grief that people may bearTotal the strife, the troubles and carePut them in columns and leave them right thereThe peace of Christmas Day(chorus twice)
