Winter is here -
Let us welcome him on,
Remember
Old Christmas is near;
And when Christmas
With all his gay feasting
Has gone,
Why then we've
The merry New Year.
Here's a health to the rich
Who will give to the poor, -
Let Plenty and
Mercy ne'er part;
And though bitter winds blow
Through the white clouds of snow,
No Winter shall
Fall on the heart.
