Lyrics

O Christmas Tree

[Verse 1]

O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree

How lovely are thy branches

O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree

How lovely are thy branches

Your boughs so green in summertime

Stay bravely green in wintertime

O Tannenbaum, O Christmas tree

How lovely are thy branches

[Interlude]

Let us all remember

In our gift giving and our merriment

With our family and friends and loved ones

The real and true meaning of Christmas

The birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ

[Verse 2]

O tannenbaum, O tannenbaum

How lovely are, are thy branches

O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum

How lovely are, how lovely are thy branches

The pillars all please faithfully

Our trust in God unchangedly

O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum

How love, lovely are thy branches

[Outro]

On Comet, on Cupid, on Donner and Blitzen

Ha ha ha ha
