Tis' Christmas once again this year
and I'll try to make this brief.
The blessings of the season bring
you and yours relief.

From cold, from hunger, from hardship too,
the stress this year has brought
May Christmas shatter, break, and do
even more than you had sought.

So Christmas wishes I give today
To brighten your weary heart.
And with brightness go our merry way
and never more to part.

Merry Christmas
