Lyrics
(French folk tune, Lyrics by Clinton Scollard)
1. Hark! Hark! Hark, through the dark
Sounds are stealing, bells are pealing!
Swing! Swing! Swing as they ring
New Year greetings unto all!
2. Hear! Hear! Hear far and near
Chimes are ringing, bells are flinging,
Cheer! Cheer! Cheer through the year,
Happy New Year unto all!
Recorder Notes G, A, B, C, D’
