Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Help me just to pass this test of time
I wish that I was blind
Strange thing to wish for, but I just can't un-see
All this misery
[Verse 2]
Help me clear this fear that's in my mind
I wish that it was lost
I can't help but think this world is on the brink
In my mind
[Chorus]
But everything's not lost (All is not lost)
'Cause Christmas and New Year is coming on strong
Everything's not lost (All is not lost)
'Cause Christmas and New Year is coming on strong
Everything's not lost (All is not lost)
'Cause Christmas and New Year is coming on strong
Good tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
[Instrumental]
Help me just to cover my ears
'Cause I don't wanna hear
Strange thing to wish for, but I can't help but hear children in fear
Bangs from bombs that shatter moms to tears
[Chorus]
But everything's not lost (All is not lost)
'Cause Christmas and New Year is coming on strong
Everything's not lost (All is not lost)
'Cause Christmas and New Year is coming on strong
Everything's not lost (All is not lost)
'Cause Christmas and New Year is coming on strong
Good tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Comfort and joy, oh
[Outro]
Christmastime is here
Good tidings to men
Peace and joy
