| High in his eyrie | B |
| All night long and to and fro | A |
| Swung the cedar and drove the snow | A |
| Out of the North have ceased to blow | A |
| And dawn breaks fiery | B |
| Sing Ho a song of the winter dawn | C |
| When the air is still and the clouds are gone | C |
| And the snow lies deep on hill and lawn | C |
| And the old clock ticks 'Tis time 't is time | D |
| And the household rises with many a yawn | C |
| Sing Ho a song of the winter dawn | C |
| Sing Ho | A |

| Deep in the East a ruddy glow | A |
| Broadens and brightens | F |
| Glints through the icicles row on row | A |
| Flames on the panes of the farmhouse low | A |
| And over the miles of drifted snow | A |
| Silently whitens | F |
| Sing Ho a song of the winter sky | G |
| When the last star closes its icy eye | G |
| And deep in the road the snow drifts lie | G |
| And the old clock ticks ' T is late 't is late | H |
| And the flame on the hearth leaps red leaps high | G |
| Sing Ho a song of the winter sky | G |
| Sing Ho | A |

| Into the heav'n the sun comes slow | A |
| All red and frowsy | F |
| Out of the shed the muffled low | A |
| Of the cattle comes and the rooster's crow | A |
| Sounds strangely distant beneath the snow | A |
| And dull and drowsy | F |
| Sing Ho a song of the winter morn | I |
| When the snow makes ghostly the wayside thorn | I |
| And hills of pearl are the shocks of corn | I |
| And the old clock ticks Tick tock tick tock | J |
| And the goodman bustles about the barn | K |
| Sing Ho a song of the winter morn | I |
| Sing Ho | A |

| Now to their tasks the farmhands go | A |
| Cheerily cheerily | A |
| The maid with her pail her cheeks aglow | A |
| And blowing his fist the man with his hoe | A |
| To trample a path through the crunching snow | A |
| Merrily merrily | A |
| Sing Ho a song of the winter day | L |
| When ermine capped are the stacks of hay | L |
| And the wood smoke pillars the air with gray | L |
| And the old clock ticks To work lo work | M |
| And the goodwife sings as she churns away | L |
| Sing Ho a song of the winter day | L |
| Sing Ho | A |
