Christmas Miracle in the trenches ft. Ed Millican Lyrics

In the midst of ugliness

I could not trust my eyes

Blood soaked ground all around

But a song began to rise

As the Kaiser's men were seen

In a curious act

Decorating a large tree

And ceasing all attack

Miracle in the Trenches

The sound of War replaced

By music that quenches

Our souls on Christmas day

We climbed out of our holes

And united as one

Different cultures mingled

As we gave thanks to God's Son

In the midst of Holy Armistice

One day turned to three

But In the end. no war pardon

Though we wanted to believe

That we'd never raise our guns again

And fight the ones we once called friends

We were ordered to forget or pretend

But memory knows it really happened

Miracle in the Trenches

The sound of War replaced

By music that quenches

Our souls on Christmas day.
