All the air with love is lader.
Where the Yule logs glow and flame,
Hopeful youth and trustful maiden
Softly chant the Masters name.
Now, if there be any sad ones,
Bid their fearful eyes be dried.
Now, if there be thOugbtless glad ones,
Be that gladness purified;
For the bells of peace are ringing,
Ginning anthems of the free.
Earth and Heaven join in singing
OF the glories yet to be.
Seek the hOughs, so green and fragrant,
Let the waxen tapers dance,
Here is hope for prince, tor vagrant,
Christ of every circumstance!
Pile the leaping fagots higher,
Let the wide -mouthed chimnneys roar,
Cash the cymbalS. twang the Tyre,
Angels wait at every door.
Soft the day of Peace is breaking;
Gladest day Of all the year;
And sweet Plenty, want o'eItaking.
