Inclusive Holiday Greeting Card

Trying to tweak a greeting card concept:
All the people(s) of the world unite...
To celebrate (rejoice in?) the return of the light.

We did something like this years ago--will try to find the images. Obviously Demetrius is my go-to guy for graphics, but I'd appreciate any help with the wording.

UPDATE

Ages ago, our ancestors, cold and fearful for their very survival, watched the winter skies for signs of the sun's return.

Each winter, we are still reminded that even in dark times, hope is waiting to be reborn inside each of us.

And just as the flame of one candle ignites another, so does hope become stronger and more brilliant as it spreads from one heart to another...until a better world is not a distant hope but a reality we have the power to create together.
