So this is Christmas

And what have you done

Another year over

And a new one just begun

And so this is Christmas

I hope you have fun

The near and the dear one

Thee old and thee young

(A very Merry Christmas)

(And a Happy New Year)

(Let's hope it's a good one)

(Without any fear)

And so this is Christmas

For weak and for strong

For rich and the poor ones

The world is so wrong

And so happy Christmas

For black and for white

For yellow and red one

Let's stop all the fight

(A very Merry Christmas)

(And a Happy New Year)

(Let's hope it's a good one)

(Without any fear)

And so this is Christmas

And what have we done

Another year over

And a new one just begun

And so happy Christmas

I hope you have fun

The near and the dear one

Thee old and thee young
