Santa with the Piano 

From the snow-covered woodlands I have come here To bring you glad tidings and good Christmas cheer. 

On the tips of the tree-tops so way up high, I saw the lights sparkling as if from the sky. 

And lo! from the gates of heaven above The Christ-Child peered down with kindness and love. And as the white snowflakes continued to fall, I heard through the stillness the Christ-Child’s call: Knecht Ruprecht, said He, You must not tarry! To well-behaved children your presents no carry! The lights on the trees are burning bright For all to behold. — What a beautiful sight! Now is the eve of the Christ-Child’s Birth Merry Christmas to all — and Peace on Earth! 

And our Merry Little Santa seated at the piano now joins along in the celebration and plays the tune: We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
