O how quickly they hop out, _(p)_
Seizing stockings with a shout!

On the hemlock and the pine,
Light the candles, make them shine; _(q)_
String the rows of corn so white _(r)_
'Mong the gifts and tinsels bright.

Storemen's windows all look gay,
'Cause it's near to Christmas day. _(s)_
Come and look in, girls and boys, _(t)_
Get a peep at Christmas joys.

In high towers out of sight
Great bells ring with all their might; _(u)_
Hear one, then another chime, _(v)_
Telling it is Christmas time.

In the distance, look afar, _(w)_
With their eyes upon the star, _(x)_
Come on camels wise men three, _(y)_
They the Christmas King shall see.
