Souvenir Holiday Greetings A Christmas Wish What blessing can I wish you, O my friends, Save that the joyful calm of Christmastide Should wrap your hearts so close that never jar Of the world's care of grief can enter it, But only love to keep you pitiful, And faith and hope to keep you strong and true. "A merry Christmas" and "A Glad New Year" I wish you all, and may God's exceeding love Enfold you close, until His tender hand Shall lead you safely home to love's own land!
