Thought For the Day

Stevie Wonder's Non-Denominational Xmas Song

I wanted to share this amazing Stevie Wonder song is about the spirit of Christmas. Not the religion. Not the commercialization, but truly, the meaning, the hope, the dream. Below are his inspiring words.

Someday At Christmastime by Stevie Wonder (1967)

Someday at Christmastime men won't be boys
Playing with bombs like kids play with toys
One warm December our hearts will see
A world where men are free

Someday at Christmastime there'll be no wars
When we have learned what Christmastime is for
When we have found what life's really worth
There'll be peace on earth

Someday all our dreams will come to be
Someday in a world where men are free
Maybe not in time for you and me
But someday at Christmastime

Someday at Christmastime we'll see a Man
No hungry children, no empty hand
One happy morning people will share
Our world where people care

Someday at Christmastime there'll be no tears
All men are equal and no men have fears
One shining moment my heart ran away
From our world today

Someday all our dreams will come to be
Someday in a world where men are free
Maybe not in time for you and me
But someday at Christmastime

Someday at Christmastime man will not fail
Take hope because your love will prevail
Someday a new world that we can start
With hope in every heart

Someday all our dreams will come to be
Someday in a world where men are free
Maybe not in time for you and me
But someday at Christmastime
Someday at Christmastime
