122. Merry, Merry Christmas!

1 Merry, merry Christmas every where!
Cheerily it ringeth through the air;
Christmas bells, Christmas trees,
Christmas odors on the breeze.
Merry, merry Christmas every where!
Cheerily it ringeth through the air;

1 Why should we so joyfully
Sing, with grateful mirth?
See! the Sun of Righteousness
Beams upon the earth!

2 Light of weary wanderers,
Comfort for th’oppressed!
He will guide His trusting ones
Into perfect rest.

3 Deeds of faith and Charity;
These our off'rings be,
Leading every soul to sing,
Christ was born for me!
