Drive the Cold Winter Away - Radio Edit
All hail to the days that merit more praise
Than all the rest of the year
And welcome the nights that double delights
As well for the poor as the peer!
Sweet blessings attend each merry man's friend
That doth but the best that he may
Forgetting old wrongs, with poems and songs
To drive the cold winter away
'Tis ill for the mind to anger inclined
To think of small injuries now
If wrath be to seek, don't lend her thy cheek
Don't let her inhabit thy brow
Cross out of thy books malevolent looks
Both beauty and youth's decay
And spend the long nights in honest delights
To drive the cold winter away
This time of the year is spent in good cheer
With neighbors together to meet
To sit by the fire, with friendly desire
With others in love to greet
Old grudges forgot, are put in the pot
All sorrows aside they lay
The old and the young doth carol this song
To drive the cold winter away
Than all the rest of the year
And welcome the nights that double delights
As well for the poor as the peer!
Sweet blessings attend each merry man's friend
That doth but the best that he may
Forgetting old wrongs, with poems and songs
To drive the cold winter away
'Tis ill for the mind to anger inclined
To think of small injuries now
If wrath be to seek, don't lend her thy cheek
Don't let her inhabit thy brow
Cross out of thy books malevolent looks
Both beauty and youth's decay
And spend the long nights in honest delights
To drive the cold winter away
This time of the year is spent in good cheer
With neighbors together to meet
To sit by the fire, with friendly desire
With others in love to greet
Old grudges forgot, are put in the pot
All sorrows aside they lay
The old and the young doth carol this song
To drive the cold winter away
