Christmas Day at Cherrywold
Reading edition
’Tis Christmas Day at Cherrywold: The snow is softly falling, And through the valley as of old The chimes are calling. But I shall wander far away This Christmas Day, this Christmas Day. A place more fair than Cherrywold— With nature’s gifts more blessed— You may not find, so I’ve been told, From East to West. But I would not be led that way, On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day.
