Father Christmas, Mother Mary
Bless the Child on this His day
Round the world are so many families
Not enough to eat but still the faith to pray

Let the holy star above
Shine a silver light of love
And turn this world around

No child should ever cry on Christmas
No child should ever be afraid
No child should ever cry on Christmas Day
Come the morning toys and laughter
Yeah, that's the way it's supposed to be
May all the mornings ever after

Bring us hope and joy in harmony

Let the holy star above
Shine a silver light of love
And turn this world around

No child should ever cry on Christmas
No child should ever be afraid
No child should ever cry on Christmas Day
Come the morning toys and laughter
Yeah, that's the way it's supposed to be
May all the mornings ever after

Let the holy star above
Shine a silver light of love
And turn this world around

No child should ever cry on Christmas
No child should ever be afraid
No child should ever cry on Christmas Day
(No child should cry, no, never cry)

No child should ever cry on Christmas
No child should ever be afraid
No child should ever cry on Christmas Day
(No child should cry, no, never cry)

No child should ever cry on Christmas
No child should ever be afraid
No child should ever cry on Christmas Day
Come the morning toys and laughter
Yeah, that's the way it's supposed to be
May all the mornings ever after
