Years Song

&0N NEW YEARS EVE in England,
~ All in the olden day, Co.
The children went a-caroling.
& All in the olden way;
And ever as they journey d on,
This chorus would you hear:.
God send you happy. God send you
: happy.
Pray God send you a happy New Year!"
Across the fields and meadows f.
And through the frosty light,
While starry eyes and starry skies
1llumed the wintry night,
The children carOled blithely on, ~
In chorus sweet and clear: ls :,
God send you happy, God send you
happy,
Pray God send you a happy New Yeari''
Our days are sadly modern,
- Our ways are modern, too; -.
But hearts still beat as high with love
AS once they used to do
30 take the old-time message,
Good friends both far and near:
God send you happy. God send you
happy, az Il 4, 81
Pray God send you happy New Year!"
