Louisa May Alcott - From The Short Story A Christmas Dream, And How It Came True
Work rating: Low

From our happy home
Through the world we roam
One week in all the year,
Making winter spring
With the joy we bring
For Christmas-tide is here.

Now the eastern star
Shines from afar
To light the poorest home;
Hearts warmer grow, 
Gifts freely flow,
For Christmas-tide has come.

Now gay trees rise
Before young eyes, 
Abloom with tempting cheer;
Blithe voices sing,
And blithe bells ring,
For Christmas-tide is here.

Oh, happy chime,
Oh, blessed time,
That draws us all so near!
"Welcome, dear day,"
All creatures say,
For Christmas-tide is here.
