Refrain

Merry, mer­ry Christ­mas day has come,
The bells are gai­ly ring­ing;
Merry, mer­ry Christ­mas day has come,
And child­ren sweet­ly sing­ing;
Merry, mer­ry Christ­mas day has come,
The bless­èd tid­ings bring­ing,
Merry, mer­ry Christ­mas,
Merry, mer­ry Christ­mas,
Merry, mer­ry Christ­mas day.

The Sav­ior comes to dwell on earth,
We hail to­day His won­drous birth;
The an­gels sing the glad re­frain,
Of peace on earth, good will to men.

Refrain

The won­drous song with rap­ture thrills
The shep­herds on Ju­de­an hills;
While an­gels bid them seek the place
Where lies the Lord of life and grace.

Refrain

With ra­pid tread the shep­herds haste
To seek the low­ly man­ger place,
And bend­ing o’er the cheer­less stall,
They hail the Sav­ior, Lord of all.
