Happy Christmas Day

With joy we greet thy glad re­turn

O hap­py day! O hap­py day!

Whereon the Prince of Peace was born

Happy Christ­mas day!

Outside the winds of win­ter blow

On Christ­mas day! On Christ­mas day!

But bright with­in the fire­sides glow

Happy Christ­mas day!

Then bay and pine with hol­ly twine

O hap­py day! O hap­py day!

High ov­er all thy fes­tiv­al

Happy Christ­mas day!

From heart to heart the greet­ings flow

On Christ­mas day! On Christ­mas day!

As up and down the peo­ple go

Happy Christ­mas day!

Within

the trees are blos­som­ing

O hap­py day! O hap­py day!

All bright with Love’s eter­nal spring

Happy Christ­mas day!

While hut and hall keep fes­tiv­al

On Christ­mas day! On Christ­mas day!

And crown with cheer the wan­ing year!

Happy Christ­mas day!

Nor time shall dim our love for Him

O hap­py day! O hap­py day!

Whose low­ly birth gave joy to earth

Happy Christ­mas day!

Still shines for us the star that led

O ha­ppy day! O hap­py day!

The ma­gi to the man­ger-bed

Happy Christ­mas day!

And grows more clear with ev­ery year

O hap­py day! O hap­py day!

The joy­ful word the shep­herds head

Happy Christ­mas day!
