This was my father’s favorite holiday song, and I can remember him humming the melody on his birthday. Hearing this song always makes me think of him and that time of year and I can’t imagine a Christmas album without it. There are so many incredible versions of this song, from Judy Garland to James Taylor and, in honor of my father, I hope this one holds up.
lyrics
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
Gather near to us once more
Through the years
We all always be together
If the fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough
Oh and have yourself a merry little Christmas
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Have yourself a merry little Christmas now
