Oh, What a Merry Christmas Day
by Frederick Searles and Irwin Kostal
Oh, what a merry Christmas Day!
Hear the joyous music play!
Bells are ringing
Choirs singing
Oh, what a merry Christmas Day!
Sharing a season of good cheer
With the ones we hold so dear
Friendly faces
Warm embraces
Oh, what a merry Christmas Day!
Snowflake covered country lanes
Jack Frost painted window panes
Winking lights on Christmas trees
Oh, what happy memories.
Gathered 'round the fireplace
Families filled with love and grace
'Round the peaceful embers glow
Blessed yuletide spirits grow
Grow and grow
Grow and grow
Joy to the children far and near
What a wondrous time of year
Isn't it just grand to say
Merry Merry Christmas
Merry Merry Christmas
Oh, what a merry Christmas Day!
