Tonight Is Christmas Lyrics - Christmas - Alabama

(Keith Worsham/Stan Munsey, Jr./ 

Don Matthews/Steve Baccus) 

The factories are all shut down 

The shopping malls are all closed 

The busy streets are all empty 

Except for the falling snow 

And in the small towns, in the cities 

Families gather as one 

'Cause the night of love and sharing 

They've looked forward to has come

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

'Cause tonight is Christmas, tonight is love 

Tonight we celebrate God's one and only Son 

Tonight there's hope for peace on earth eternally 

Tonight is Christmas and the world's in harmony 

But across the seas two armies 

Stare down at each other's guns 

Each believing in their cause enough 

To die or kill the other one 

But tonight there'll be no shooting, 

Not a drop of blood will spill 

They will cease their fire this silent night 

In the name of peace and goodwill
