One of the great things about Christmas carols is that their timelessness can take us back to Christmases past. I believe that in itself can make Christmas special. So reaching back in the archives of my Christmases gone by are two versions ( 1 and 2 ) of John Denver and the Muppets singing the Peace Carol. Such a great song with such great meaning! AND MUPPETS!!
The hope that has slumbered for two thousand years
The promise that silenced a thousand fears
A faith that can hobble an ocean of tears
The peace of Christmas Day
