Oh, Make My Christmas Bright
Oh, make my Christmas bright with gaiety,
with scents of cookies baking and the tree,
a fir bejeweled and lovely in its trim
of silver tinsel sparkling from each limb.
Oh, make the Yuletide shine with harmony.
Yes, make it ring with laughter and with glee
as crowded round the organ, family
sing “Jingle Bells” and “Deck the Halls” with vim!
Oh, make my Christmas bright.
And make it ever gleam that I might see
those glistening faces smiling back at me
around the fireplace as day grows dim
and all recall the miracle of Him
we’re reverencing. How fond my memory!
Oh, make my Christmas bright.
