Good cheer, good cheer!
For a happy New Year
Is brightly smiling before us,
Let merry bells ring,
Let happy hearts sing.
Good cheer, good cheer is the chorus.

Adown the past, one look we cast,
For friends and fancies olden;
The forward glance and dream perchance
Of future days more golden.
Good cheer, good cheer!
For a happy New Year
Is brightly smiling before us,
Let merry bells ring,
Let happy hearts sing.
Good cheer, good cheer is the chorus.

Good cheer, good cheer!
For a happy New Year
Is brightly smiling before us,
Let merry bells ring,
Let happy hearts sing.
Good cheer, good cheer is the chorus.

In future years, from smiles and tears
Our lives shall luster gather,
And come what may we'll always say
"Thy will be done, our Father."
Good cheer, good cheer!
For a happy New Year
Is brightly smiling before us,
Let merry bells ring,
Let happy hearts sing.
Good cheer, good cheer is the chorus.
