Speaker 1 Somewhere on the Lees River
Speaker 1 in the frost of 14
Speaker 1 A weary German officer
Speaker 1 riots home of what he's seen
Speaker 1 And gets from home at midnight
Speaker 1 Gingerbread and woolen thread
Speaker 1 But artillery still thundered
Speaker 1 As he counted up the dead
Speaker 1 And just past Christmas morning
Speaker 1 Through the smoking winter grave
Speaker 1 A Bavarian raised a pine tree
Speaker 1 Like a lantern of hope in the haze
Speaker 1 And across the broken silence
Speaker 1 Came a shout from Scottish men
Speaker 1 Kilted Highlanders hero
Speaker 1 wishing us Christmas once again
Speaker 1 Who knows how peace begins
Speaker 1 Maybe one brave voice
Speaker 1 Maybe one small light
Speaker 1 on Christmas morning even enemies
Speaker 1 can remember their healing for a night
Speaker 1 Just for a night
Speaker 1 We remember we're human for a night
Speaker 1 A lone Bavarian rifleman
Speaker 1 Crawled out through the wire
Speaker 1 Met a scot with cigarettes
Speaker 1 Where the mud met the fire
Speaker 1 Soon the trenches emptied
Speaker 1 Men shook hands in no man's land
Speaker 1 Candles traded for cigars
Speaker 1 As they helped each other stand
Speaker 1 Hands said war was suspended
Speaker 1 The peace of Christmas had come
Speaker 1 Even officers exchanging words
Speaker 1 about daughters, gifts, and home
Speaker 1 And in the ruins of Commons
Speaker 1 A monastery without a roof
Speaker 1 They sang silent night together
Speaker 1 A fragile holy proof
Speaker 1 Who knows how peace begins
Speaker 1 Maybe one brave voice Maybe one small light
Speaker 1 on Christmas morning even enemies
Speaker 1 Can remember they're human for a night
Speaker 1 Just for a night
Speaker 1 We remember we're human for a night
Speaker 1 But at dawn on the 26th
Speaker 1 The guns began again
Speaker 1 Window panes rattled he wrote
Speaker 1 As command reclaimed the men
Speaker 1 He confessed to his dear Edith
Speaker 1 We'll be hard to shoot them now
Speaker 1 But orders are orders in wartime Even when your heart says no
Speaker 1 Not after this not now
Speaker 1 who knows how peace begins
Speaker 1 Maybe one brave voice
Speaker 1 Maybe one small light A very end with a Christmas tree of Scott stepping out from the fight And history remembers the guns but heaven recalls the sight
Speaker 1 when soldiers laid their weapons down
Speaker 1 and were human
Speaker 1 for a night
Speaker 1 just for a night.
Speaker 1 We remember where you fall.
