All Year Long

This Christmas season
I wish you joy
The wonder
In every girl and boy
I wish you gladness
The warmth and cheer
Of good friends
And family
Gathered near

May
Children's laughter
And falling snow
Rekindle
Sweet scenes
From long ago
May every carol
Each candle bright
Remind you why angels
Sang that night

If trouble finds you
This is my prayer
May peace
Come into your hearts
And make you strong
And I wish you luck
The kind to last
All year long
