VERSE 1:
   When darkness is falling and shadows grow long
   It's time for the children to sing this old song
   It tells of the coming of wonders untold
   Forgotten is winter, its fury and cold,
   hi-ho, hi-ho, we'll soon see the candles glow
   hi-ho, hi-ho, we'll soon see the candles glow
  
   Repeat Verse 1
  
   When darkness is falling and stars fill the sleigh
   The waiting is over and we all know why
   It's time for celebrating and having a feast
   Because of the tidings that come from the east
   hi-ho, hi-ho, we'll soon see the candles glow
   hi-ho, hi-ho, we'll soon see the candles glow
