Prepare the song, the feast, the hall To welcome merry Christmas. [Chorus] And all remember, gentles gay: For you who bask in fortune's ray The year is all a holiday. The poor have only Christmas. 2. You who in velvet mantle go, Defy December's tempest's roar. Oh, spare one garment from your store To clothe the poor at Christmas. [Chorus] 3. You who the costly banquet deal To friends who never famine feel, Oh, spare one morsel from your meal To feed the poor at Christmas. [Chorus] 4. With blazing logs of fuel the while, Your homes are within summer's smile. Oh, spare one log from off your pile To warm the poor at Christmas. [Chorus] 5. So shall each note of mirth appear More sweet to Heaven than praise or prayer, And angels in their carols there Shall bless the poor at Christmas.
