Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas

December 2024

From Mrs. Christmas


Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas

Music by Hugh Martin, original lyrics by Ralph Blaine;

changes by Debra Milligan


We shall have a

merry little Christmas

 

Our hearts shall be light

 

From now on,

our troubles will be

gone from sight.

 

We shall have a

merry little Christmas

 

and make the Yuletide

gay.

 

This time, next year,

 

The Troubles will be miles


away . . .

 

Here we are

 

as in olden days,

 

remembering

 

happy golden

days of yore

 

Faithful Friends

who are dear to us

 

shall feel near to us

 

once more.


Through the years

 

we all shall be together,

 

as the Fates allow

 

We’ll hang a shining star

 

upon the highest bough.

 

We’ll have ourselves

 

a Merry Little Christmas


now.

 

Through the years

we all shall be together,

 

as those Fates allow.

 

We’ll hang a shining star

upon the highest bough


to let the Lord show us

 

how

 

to have a merry

 

big Merry Christmas

 

now!
