Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas
Composer Hugh Martin
first sung by Judy Garland in "Meet me in St Louis" 1944

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on
Your troubles will be out of sight

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the Yule-tide gay
From now on
Your troubles will be miles away

Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
They gather near to us once more

Someday soon we all will be together,
*if the fates allow.
**Until then we'll have to muddle through somehow
So have yourself a merry little Christmas
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
So have yourself a merry little Christmas now


*originally written as "if the Lord allows"
**changed by Frank Sinatra in 1957 to "Hang a shining star upon the highest bough"
