Alone my peace will start with me
I want it for my family
And for all humanity
Alone my peace will start with me
I pray this time most every year
For greed and hunger disappear
And for no child live in fear
I pray this time most every year
It's gonna snow, snow
From the highways to the meadows
It's gonna snow, oh
From the white house to the ghettos
And to my gift I will be true
And do what little I can do
And when this year it starts anew
To my gift I will be true
Alone my peace will start with me
I want it for my family
And for all humanity
Alone my peace will start with me
