Eric Cockrell - Hell, It's Christmas!

just for once...
let's unload the guns,
take the fingers off the button,

unload the planes...
open your churches to the homeless,
your homes to the hungry...

turn your prayers into ears,
that listen, hear, and care!
give somebody the best gift of all

your time!
hell, it's Christmas...
let's act like we understand!
