A man is at his finest towards the finish of the year;
He is almost what he should be when the Christmas season's here;

And the laughter of his children is a joy worth toiling for.
He is less a selfish creature than at any other time;
When the Christmas spirit rules him he comes close to the sublime..."

Their old, familiar carols play,

Of peace on earth, good-will to men!"
