Loreena McKennitt - In Praise Of Christmas Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • All hail to the days that merit more praise
  • Than all of the rest of the year
  • And welcome the nights that double delights
  • As well for the poor as the peer
  • Good fortune attend each merry man's friend
  • That doth but the best that he may
  • Forgetting old wrongs with carols and songs
  • To drive the cold winter away
  • 'Tis ill for a mind to anger inclined
  • To think of small injuries now
  • If wrath be to seek, do not lend her thy cheek
  • Nor let her inhabit thy brow
  • Cross out of thy books malevolent looks
  • Both beauty and youth's decay
  • And wholly consort with mirth and with sport
  • To drive the cold winter away
  • This time of the year is spent in good cheer
  • And neighbors together do meet
  • To sit by the fire with friendly desire
  • Each other in love to greet
  • Old grudges forgot are put in the pot
  • All sorrows aside they lay
  • The old and the young doth carol this song
  • To drive the cold winter away
  • When Christmas tide comes in like a bride
  • With holly and ivy clad
  • Twelve days in the year much mirth and good cheer
  • In every household is had
  • The country guise is then to devise
  • Some gambols of Christmas play
  • Whereat the young men do the best that they can
  • To drive the cold winter away
