Christmas, Merry Christmas

Christmas! Mer­ry Christ­mas!

We greet it

we greet it with glee

With laugh­ter and sing­ing

So joy­ful are we.

It brings us full stock­ings

Crammed down to the toe

And fine Christ­mas trees

On whose boughs pre­sents grow.

But we know a rea­son

Far bet­ter than these

For wel­com­ing Christ­mas day;

Listen now

please.

Dear God sent a Christ­mas gift

Long

long ago

To make peo­ple hap­py

And bet­ter

we know.

And so we

too

try

As the day comes each year

To make our friends hap­py

And sad hearts to cheer.

Christmas! Mer­ry Christ­mas!

We greet it

we greet it with glee

With laugh­ter and sing­ing

So joy­ful are we.
