Young Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on, our troubles will be out of sight
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the Yuletide gay
From now on, our 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 will be together
If the fates allow
So hang a shining star upon the highest bough
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on, our troubles will be out of sight
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the Yuletide gay

From now on, our 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 will be together
If the fates allow




So hang a shining star upon the highest bough
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now

Where The Mind Is Without Fear

Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high
Where knowledge is free
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments
By narrow domestic walls
Where words come out from the depth of truth
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way
Into the dreary desert sand of dead habit
Where the mind is led forward by thee
Into ever-widening thought and action
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.

Rabindranath Tagore

When the road gets dark
And you can no longer see
Just let my love throw a spark
And have a little faith in me
And when the tears you cry
Are all you can believe
Just give these loving arms a try
And have a little faith in me
And
Have a little faith in me
Have a little faith in me
Have a little faith in me
Have a little faith in me
When your secret heart
Cannot speak so easily
Come here darlin'
From a whisper start
To have a little faith in me
And when your back's against the wall
Just turn around and you will see
I will catch, I will catch your fall baby
Just have a little faith in me
Have a little faith in me
Have a little faith in me
Have a little faith in me
Have a little faith in me

As I hear this song my wife of 30 yrs is in stage 4 pancreatic cancer. We have no insurance due to covid no job. But we're stronger than ever and we love each other more than ever. I played this song for and she simply smiled and "I never lost faith in you, I just don't want to leave you".

@richa6829

God man. Reading this and listening to this song made me water up easy. I have most faith in both of you to do what you can to make life work even when your dealing with some of the worst. I am not at all reglious but I do believe God has a plan for everyone and tests us in certain situations and I will with out a doubt pray for your wife as well as yourself. I hope all the best for you and your family.

Thank you for those kind words. Just want this pain that's killing me inside to go away. I want my old lady back, want to bbq outside and drink a cold beer with her, want hold her in my arms and dance with her, want to make sweet love to her.!! It's not fair we had a good thing going.

@richa6829

@@danielcedillo7649 You need to just get out there and enjoy with her what you can before it's over and as much as it's hard to do that while she's battling but you need to do what you can. Take her outside, have a BBQ, just make it happen if possible. Show her the love you have for her at these times.

@danielcedillo7649

@@richa6829 Thank you. Gonna put a smile on her face. During these times it's hard to believe that there's good people out there with warm , loving hearts. Once again thank you.
