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
