The sight of small children and the ominous signs of war inspired him to compose the words ''Pray for peace, people everywhere.'' They appear in the last of the carol's four stanzas.<br />

But we are so bombarded by sound and our attention spans are so short that we now listen only to catchy beginnings.''<br />
