On skates and on snowshoes,
In sledge and in sleigh,
We’ll meet Father Christmas, and lead him our way.
Cho.—We’ll meet Father Christmas, and lead him our way.
Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas! the hearth is piled high.
The yellow tongues flicker, the fleet sparkles fly.
Bring apples and chestnuts,
And corn-popper here!
We’ll pledge Father Christmas, and make him good cheer!
Cho.— We’ll pledge Father Christmas, and make him good cheer!
