John Lennon and Yoko Ono’s classic Christmas hit from 1971 with its message of peace is as relevant now as it was then.

Lyrics:

So this is Christmas and what have you done?
Another year over, a new one just begun

And so this is Christmas, I hope you have fun
The near and the dear ones, 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
The rich and the poor ones, the road is so long

And so Happy Christmas, for black and for white
For the left and the right ones, let’s stop all the fights

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 ones, the old and the young

War is over if you want it
War is over now

Music and Lyrics: John Lennon & Yoko Ono
