How lovely 'tis to take this time To greet our dearest friends, To wish them health and happiness Before the old year ends. Darkness comes late afternoon And winter lies ahead, But friendship is a glowing fire When all seems cold and dead. Just as in some vacant barn, Unnoticed in the night, The whole of human history turns, So we, too, make things right. We must keep alive the flame Though darkness grip the Earth; For in the love we find in friends Is our chance for rebirth.
