Lyrics:
So this is Christmas
And what have you done
Another year over
A new one's just begun
And so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young
A very Merry Christmas
And a Happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
And so this is Christmas
For weak and for strong
For rich and the poor ones
The world is so wrong
And so Happy Christmas
For black and for white
For yellow and red ones
Let's stop all the fight
A very Merry Christmas
And a Happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
Without any fear
Without any fear
Without any fear
Without any fear
And so this is Christmas
And what have we done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
And so Happy Christmas
We hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young
A very Merry Christmas
And a Happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
(repeat 3X)
Happy X-Mas (War Is Over)

Behind the Song:
'This is a Christmas song I grew up
hearing in Australia. To me it holds
two special challenges. First, to use
our time on earth wisely ('So this is
Christmas and what have we done'),
and second, it encourages us to live
our lives without earthly fear!' - Rebecca St. James
