So this is Christmas
And what have you done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
Ans 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
And so this is Christmas
And what have we done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
Ans 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
War is over over
If you want it
War is over
Now...

An eye for an eye
Will make us all blind.

So simple and obvious, yet so profound.

7. Thank You.
I have been hearing this repeatedly in the car (station flipping), and in stores as well.

Speechless... still remember and grew-up with great admiration for him and Yoko. It's what he stood for that really counts now.

9. "If you want it."
That says it all. If we want it, if we all just refuse to support hate, division and violence, it will not happen. A tall order, an ideal but still the right target to strive for.
