Faithful friends It's Christmas time again And the close of yet one more year We've searched so long For shelter and for calm Just to find it's always been here So fretful friends It's Christmas time again Paper chains have all disappeared Join along in everlasting song Raise your voice that all shall hear: La-La-La Fairweather friends It's Christmas time again And the close of yet one more year Our days grow short And troubles seldom worn As the yuletide draws ever near Fitful friends It's Christmas time again Evergreens embellished with care Thoughts that stray To hearts so far away And the timeless gifts that we share Fearless friends It's Christmas time again Silver bells ring through frosty air It took so long To fade this Christmas song One more chime, and we'll end it there
