Could it be
Maybe it’s true
Could it be?
That we
Do it all for You
All the Caring
For people that are here
All the Sharing
For anyone there
All the believing
In a man in a red and white suit
All the gathering
With foes and people we’ve never met
Could it be?
That we
Do it all for You
All the smiles
For people we’ve never met
All the clapping
For people we’ve never heard
All the tolerance
To those we can’t
All the giving
To those who don’t return
Could it be?
That we
Do it all for You
All the shouting
For things we don’t even speak
All the cheering
And pinching of someone’s cheek
All the giving
To everyone we know
All the loving
All the way we know
Could it be?
That we
Do it all for You
All the work
For a job created by choice
All the year
Working for one day, one goal
All the preparations
For things that really not need
All the fuss
For things that don’t need a thought
Could it be?
That we
Do it all for You
All the excitement
Couldn’t just be for gifts
All the Goodness
Couldn’t only be for Santa Claus
All around the world
All people
From almost every culture
Join together for celebration
Could it be
All foes are forgotten
And all worries are cast aside
That we
Do it for You
All love is given freely
And caring expressed and shared
Could it be
All prejudges are silenced
And all eyes are fixed
That we
Do it for you
All hands are joined
And all hearts are opened
Could it be
All rivers of joyful tears are moved
And all love flows
That we
Do it for You
All sounds are made
And all songs are sung
Could it be
All candles are lit
And all winds are blown
That we
Do it for You
Surely something that joins the world
By links of love
That sets in every heart joy
And fills every heart with peace
Is something more a than time of selfishness,
Not remembering why we have it in the first place
Surely it’s Christ’s birth
Surely it’s Christmas
Maybe it’s true
Could it be?
That we
Do it all for YOU
