Home at Christmastide |
It isn't far to "home, sweet home" |
When Christmas sights we see |
For we can always travel there, |
Though snowbound we might be. |
Though winds may blow the snowdrifts high |
And bitter cold may reign, |
That "going home for Christmas" yen |
Will in our hearts remain. |
It is not far to that dear spot |
Where family ties still live; |
There's still a way to "home,sweet home," |
Where treasured joys are hid. |
For thoughts and hearts can travel there; |
No distance can erase |
The going home at Christmastime, |
Back to the old home place. |
