1. O Christmas Tree, O Christmas tree,
You stand in verdant beauty!
O Christmas Tree, O Christmas tree,
You stand in verdant beauty!
Your boughs are green in summer's glow,
And do not fade in winter's snow.
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
You stand in verdant beauty!
2. O Christmas Tree, O Christmas tree,
Much pleasure doth thou bring me!
O Christmas Tree, O Christmas tree,
Much pleasure doth thou bring me!
For ev'ry year the Christmas tree,
Brings to us all both joy and glee.
O Christmas Tree, O Christmas tree,
Much pleasure doth thou bring me!
