Smiles ON the faces a. people 70 pass,
squeaks in the snow where they hurry so
fast;
Meetings and greetings, so merry and glad
wishings and winkings ~santa Claus
mad"
Laughter that bubbles and dancing wee feet;
Holly wreaths hung all the wsy down the
street;
See the green Christmas .rees frostiiy
pearled-
Christmas is coming, there's joy in the
worldi
Loving hands busy by day and by night.
Loving hearts beating all buoyant and light,
Secrets and whispers and mystery rife.
Doors that dare close e'en between mar and
wife;
Parcels and packages. bundle and box;
Can't some one hurry these stupid old
clocks?
Santa Claus waits on his trip to be whiried--
Christmas is coming: there's JOY in the
world
