The truth is the truth and turning one's eye from it won't change what it is.
I commend you for helping with a food/toy drive during the Holidays. But the truth of the matter is that the world needs people helping all throughout the year and not just during Christmas. That is what this song is about.
It is a shame you couldn't watch it all, as it is very beautiful, very unselfish, very generous in love, and full of truth.
Here are the lyrics to the song:

Grown-up Christmas list
Do you remember me?
I sat upon your knee;
I wrote to you
With childhood fantasies.
Well, I'm all grown-up now,
And still need help somehow.
I'm not a child,
But my heart still can dream.
So here's my lifelong wish,
My grown-up Christmas list.
Not for myself,
But for a world in need.
No more lives torn apart,
That wars would never start,
And time would heal all hearts.
And everyone would have a friend,
And right would always win,
And love would never end.
This is my grown-up Christmas list.
As children we believed
The grandest sight to see
Was something lovely
Wrapped beneath our tree.
Well heaven surely knows
That packages and bows
Can never heal
A hurting human soul.
No more lives torn apart,
That wars would never start,
And time would heal all hearts.
And everyone would have a friend,
And right would always win,
And love would never end.
This is my grown-up Christmas list.
What is this illusion called the innocence of youth?
Maybe only in our blind belief can we ever find the truth.
No more lives torn apart,
That wars would never start,
And time would heal all hearts.
And everyone would have a friend,
And right would always win,
And love would never end, oh.
This is my grown-up Christmas list.

Couldn't agree more!
I sure hope I didn't make you feel that way with anything I said. I realized that the pictures in the video could do that (make someone feel depressed), that is why I posted the lyrics. I figured that would help you sinse you couldn't finish the video... you'd be able to 'read' the lyrics.i uuuuhhhhh kinda feel like an ass now.
