Away with grief and sorrow:
: Our hearts are light, cen throug
Il the night,
For Christmas comes tomorrow.
All hail to Chrtstmas. Let the choru
ring
/ Ger mountains, lakes and rivers:
Let the rich and poor to a neighbor'
door
j Go forth as cheerful givers.
Let firesides bright reflect loves ligh
To darkened homes of sorrow;
! Heart treasures give, that souls ma,
live.
! For Christmas comes tomorrow.
All hall to the Christ, and the day ht
gave,
With its hope of life forever;
I With its peace and love In the homs

Nor care, nor trouble borrow.
The night goes fast-joy comes at

Lies Christmas comes tomorrow.
