A Christmas Carol.
Wisest men and women,
Wisest ones are they
Who, to little children,
Give their hearts to-day.
Wisest ones are they
Who, to little children,
Give their hearts to-day.
Day for fond remembrance,
When, from far and near,
Speeds the wish and greeting:
Christmas day is here!
When, from far and near,
Speeds the wish and greeting:
Christmas day is here!
Sweet the olden story,
"On earth peace: good-will":
Words of benediction
Linger with us still.
"On earth peace: good-will":
Words of benediction
Linger with us still.
Blessed words and tender
For the Christmas-tide:
In our hearts forever
May their peace abide!
For the Christmas-tide:
In our hearts forever
May their peace abide!
Sing a song of Christmas!
Sing of joy and cheer;
Sound the pealing anthem:
Christmas day is here!
Sing of joy and cheer;
Sound the pealing anthem:
Christmas day is here!
