Paroles de Soldier's Gift

'Twas the night before Christmas
When all through the house
Not a creature was stirring
Not even a mouse
No stockings were hung
The mantle was bare
St. Nicholas looked around
And no one was there

Yeah, tonight there's a soldier in a land far away
While the children listen for the bells on a sleigh
We've never met 'em, names not on our list
But you'll sleep well America, that's the soldier's gift

A house cold and quiet
A sad sight to see
No tinsel, no presents
Not a light on a tree
Just some medals and badges
In a frame on the wall
That stand at attention
If duty should call

Yeah, tonight there's a soldier in a land far away
While the children listen for the bells on a sleigh
We've never met 'em, names not on our list Outside the snow falls
And Icicles glisten
Joy To The World
From a caroling choir
Mistletoe kisses
Throw a log on the fire

'Cause tonight there's a soldier in a land far away
While the children listen for the bells on a sleigh
We've never met 'em, names not on our list
But you'll sleep well America, that's the soldier's gift

Yeah, God blessed America with the soldier's gift
