One frozen night in 1914 at the height of world war one[00:00:00]
The unthinkable happened[00:00:05]
All along the entire western front[00:00:07]
The british and german soldiers lay down their weapons[00:00:10]
In an unofficial cease fire to celebrate christmas eve together[00:00:13]
They exchanged gifts and saw each other as brothers[00:00:19]
And that peace lasted for two more days[00:00:22]
When they were ordered back to battle[00:00:25]
In those few days though[00:00:28]
Men remembered the reason for christmas[00:00:30]
Amongst the devastation[00:00:32]
And it's a story that should never be forgotten[00:00:34]
Through the smoke filled night[00:00:37]
Silence rolls from both sides[00:00:40]
Across a bloody battlefield[00:00:45]
It was a cold christmas eve in 1914[00:00:51]
For those who were there it seemed unreal[00:01:00]
As time was still the spirit moved the soldiers[00:01:07]
To lay down their arms raise their voice in song[00:01:15]
And pretend for a while the war was over[00:01:22]
If it could happen then it could happen again[00:01:30]
A world torn apart to join hands and hearts[00:01:38]
To celebrate his birth peace on this earth[00:01:44]
If for one magic night we could find again a reason not to fight[00:01:53]
Maybe there's a chance this time it might last[00:02:03]
As opposing sides approached[00:02:12]
Through broken words they spoke[00:02:16]
It wasn't long before they felt at ease[00:02:20]
They shared their cigarettes[00:02:27]
What they had they used as gifts[00:02:31]
They didn't feel like enemies[00:02:36]
With candles lit they stood shoulder to shoulder[00:02:42]
And on that field they found true common ground[00:02:50]
And as they prayed they dreamed the war was over[00:02:58]
If it could happen then it could happen again[00:03:05]
A world torn apart to join hands and hearts[00:03:13]
To celebrate his birth peace on this earth[00:03:19]
If for one magic night we could find again a reason not to fight[00:03:28]
Maybe there's a chance this time it might last[00:03:38]
It Could Happen Again - Collin Raye[00:03:46]
