A Christmas Letter sung by Keith Whitley At an antique desk an old man sits alone It's Christmas Eve and almost time to go He signs his name to a letter he just wrote Then he reads it back with a voice as soft as snow   I want peace on earth for Christmas In a world where there's not one hungry child A day when hope and faith conquers fear and hate All its gonna take is a little more love   He walks outside and climbs up on his sleigh Then calls out to his reindeer and off they fly away Tonight he'll make a million dreams appear While he wishes his own dreams could come true this year   I want peace on Earth for Christmas In a world where there's not one hungry child A day when hope and faith conquers fear and hate All it's gonna take is a little more love A day when hope and faith conquers fear and hate All it's gonna take is a little more love
