Little Old Town
WKi.l., (Pirisliik.s in coming, and nil
the day long
My thoughts have been running
away,
With an vdioine laiißh and the lilt of a
sons
To nn old-fashioned Christman <lajt
To a bIR old house in a little old town,
Where you and the others and 1
Mode merry together, with never * frown
And never a thought of Ki*h,
'l*h* btjf oIJ houJM-. i:i tb little old town.
Oh, bow it would rovk with our mtn h.
And jralher i:b niiully w*l niddle ur, down,
The boinkst place the-earth.
It wawi't upholstered In tapestries rre.
>*•o van *** the <x*l whiduw-Beat ye)
It may have beer shabby a hit and
t here—
Well, those are the thhifia we forget.
Hoi, oh! the myatwtous secrets it Utiew,
That old house, when Christmas was
condrig,
>.nd tho laughter and fun ringing-through
It and through,
And the vov cs tirul somebody humming;
And the hour when around the piano we'd
meet,
Tes, even in busy December
jror an old Christmas hymn with its har
mony sweet —
Ah, those are the things we remember.
And then yoo recall bow the midnight
train down
Would bring bark a sinter or brothers.
To the big old house In the little old town,
Where ChrlatmAs meant 1.0n.e and the
others,
And tlie old house was looking its holiday
- best,
And the table all spread for the feast;
With An extra, chair set for the holiday
guest,
fiome siravger, “one of the least.”
The big old house In 'be little old town
They tell me the year* ale unkind,
It looks bare and neglected, it* fence
tumbles down,
Hince wo w altered and left ii behind.
No, I haven’t been luuk; 1 would rather
recall
The day* of its glory gone by,
When vve fled ro i(s e.rnos for the best day
of all,
You and the others and 1.

And there V waited, unite alimf

At midnight twenty tingrls cstns,
t tv'll"' ;i'.l ‘ill ”!")< i ■ : ''inr
.’,t midnight twenty angels e.mg.
The stars swung out like bells, and ran*.
They lifted me across the 11111,
They ho re me In their arms until
A greater glory greeted them.
It wus the. town of Bethlehem.
And gently, then, they set me dov.n.
All worshiping that holy town,
And gently, then, they hade me raise
My head to worship and to praise
And gently, then, the Christ smiled il'iita,
Ah, there was glory In that town’
If was m If the world w< re free
And glistening In purity.
There. In that vault of crystal blue,
II was as if the world were new,
And myriad angels, file on file,
Gloried In the CHrist-chlld’s smile
It was so beautiful to see,
Sin h glory for a child like me.
Rn beautiful, If doos not seem
It could have been a Christmas dream'
