Lyrics
Thru the solemn hush of twilight
Comes the peal of Christmas chimes
Awe inspiring and reminding
Of our love to all mankind
And the snowflakes softly falling
For an ermine robe to weave
Gives to us a scene of beauty
On this peaceful Christmas eve
Now the candlelights appearing
And the carol voices clear
Filling ev’ry heart with gladness
For a bright new year
So it is at ev’ry yuletide
When our blessings we recall
Wish to shout from ev’ry housetop
Merry Christmas one and all
