Am                G       Am
It is the time so well we love,
G                   Am
The time of all the year;
Am                     G        Am
When winter calls with chilling breath,
E7                    Am
For fireside and good cheer.
Am                  G
A time for man and beast to stand
Am                  E7
And feel the season turn;
Am                     G       Am
To watch the stars for secret signs,
E7                     Am
And God's true lessons learn.

[Chorus]
G                                      Am
The time when the corn is all into the barn,
Am                              E7
The old cow's breath's a frosty wine,
Am                     G      Am
And the morn along the fallow field
E7          Am
Doth silver shine.

[Verse 2]
Am                      G       Am
And when cold morning's radiant star
G                    A
Shines over hill and plain;
Am                G      Am
We know anew that little babe
E              Am
Is born to us again.
Am                    G
And man and beast and bird in tree,
Am                  E7
Each one in his own place;
Am                    G         Am
We bow our hearts and thank our God
E7                   Am
For winter rest and grace.

[Chorus]
G                                      Am
The time when the corn is all into the barn,
Am                              E7
The old cow's breath's a frosty wine,
Am                     G      Am
And the morn along the fallow field
E7          Am
Doth silver shine.
