Even though it was also released as a single, the song was not a hit upon its first appearance. In 1992, however, Amy Grant recorded a version for her second holiday album, Home for Christmas. Grant's version featured altered lyrics and an additional verse that Grant penned herself. Her record label at the time, A&M Records, promoted the song as the second single from the album. A&M Records also released a music video for the song, featuring an appearance by Grant's son, Matthew Chapman. Grant's version is the one most people associate with the song. The heartfelt song is about a visit with Santa Claus by an adult who does not ask Santa for anything material for Christmas, but rather nothing but good things for humanity: No more lives torn apart, That wars would never start, And time would heal all hearts. Everyone would have a friend, And right would always win, And love would never end. The song has been frequently covered by other artists, including B.J. Thomas in 1997, Donny Osmond in 1998, Monica in 2000, Barbra Streisand in 2001, Ginette Reno in 2002, Kelly Clarkson in 2003, Michael Bublé in 2003, Lea Salonga in 2004, Jane Monheit in 2005, Clay Aiken in 2006, Ayla Brown in 2007, and The Twin Cities Gay Men's Chorus in 2008. This song was covered by Luis Miguel, but in Spanish.
