Cheerily hail the Christ­mas morn,
Carol a tune­ful lay;
Welcome the in­fant Sav­ior born,
Greet Him with joy to­day.

Refrain

Merrily now the bells we hear,
Chiming in chor­us sweet and clear,
Gather and sing, ga­ther and sing,
Welcome the child­ren’s king.

Wonderful song of ho­ly mirth,
Sweeping along the sky;
Glory to God, and peace on earth,
Glory to God on high.

Refrain

Over the world good news pro­claim,
Heralds of love, away;
Jesus the Lord has come to reign,
Tell it with joy to­day.
