9364. Beautiful Christmas

1 Beautiful Christmas, welcome thy coming,
Day filled with pleasure and cheer;
Jewel the fairest, gem of the rarest
Crowning the golden year.

Refrain:
Welcome the day to our hearts ever dear,
Day of rejoicing now is here;
Hail, happy morning, welcome thy dawning,
Jesus is born the Savior in Bethlehem.

2 Beautiful Christmas, bright day of gladness,
Gladly thy praises we sing;
Hail happy morning, welcome thy dawning,
Peace and good will to bring. [Refrain]

3 Beautiful Christmas, time of rejoicing,
Day when our hearts are aglow;
Richest of treasure, giv’n without measure,
Freely dost thou bestow. [Refrain]
