10070. At Christmas Time

1 Give and forgive at Christmas time;
Live and let live at Christmas time;
Tho’ all the world be wrapped in night,
The stars above are shining bright,
At Christmas time, at Christmas time.

2 Give and forgive at Christmas time;
Live and let live at Christmas time;
The darkness yields at last to light,
And wrong will be conquered by right,
At Christmas time, at Christmas time.

3 Live and let live at Christmas time;
Give and forgive at Christmas time;
Tho’ bitterness has cast its blight,
Let truth and love our hearts unite,
At Christmas time, at Christmas time.

4 Live and let live at Christmas time;
Give and forgive at Christmas time;
For all the world must own His might,
Who came to bless mankind with light,
At Christmas time, at Christmas time.

5 Give and forgive at Christmas time;
Live and let live at Christmas time;
Till through the year shall shine the light
That glorified the holy night,
At Christmas time, at Christmas time.

6 Give and forgive at Christmas time;
Live and let live at Christmas time;
From deepest depth and highest height,
Be praise to God and glory bright;
At Christmas time, at Christmas time.
