Every year at Christmas, all I can see
C F
Are pictures of the things I want around the tree
Dm C
But this year's a little different
F Am
I'm not thinking of myself
F
So my prayer for this Christmas
C G
Is for somebody else
Gsus4 G
So I pray
C G
Joy To the World
Am7 F
Peace for every boy and girl
C G
Hope when life is hard
Am7 F
Light when everything seems dark
C F
God I know you're listening and you can hear
C F
The need of every broken heart and all their tears
Dm C
I don't have a lot to offer
F Am
Just this one simple prayer
F
That this Christmas everyone would know
C G
Somebody cares...
Gsus4 G
So I pray
C G
Joy to the world
Am7 F
Peace for every boy and girl
C G
Hope when life is hard
Am7 F
Light when everything seems dark
Dm7 C
I pray that every hungry soul
F C
Will be fed and will be warm
Dm7 C
That not a single solitary child
F
Would suffer harm
Dm7 C/E
And wars would find their ending
F C/E
As we take another view
Dm7 C
My hope is that this Christmas prayer
F Gsus4 G
Would somehow come true
Bb
I pray
F Bb
Humanity would rise
G A
And join with me
G A
And together we'll sing
Woah, woah
D A
Joy To the World To all the world
Bm7 G
Peace for every boy and girl
D A
Talking ‘bout hope when life is hard
Bm7 G
Light when everything seems dark
Em7 D
I pray that every hungry soul
G D
Will be fed and will be warm
Em7 D
That not a single solitary child
G Bm7
Would suffer harm
Em7 D
And Lord, we find their ending
G D
As we take another view
Em7 D
So now my hope is that this Christmas prayer
G A
Would somehow come true
D A
Joy To the World
Bb G
Peace for every boy and girl
