1.
On the birthday of the Lord
Angel Quires with one accord
Sing in dulci jubilo,
Gloria uni Deo!
Refrain:
God of Mary maid is born
Christ is Mary's son tomorn:
Mother she, yet maiden aye.
2.
Tidings true an Angel told
Certain shepherds on the wold,
Tidings great and full of glee;
Christ and His nativity.
Refrain.
3.
Born is our Emmanuel,
As fortold by Gabriel,
Witness'd of Ezechiel,
From the Father forthfaring.
Refrain.
4.
Christus natus hodie
Ex Maria Virgine:
gender'd not of mortal seed,
God today is Man indeed.
Refrain.
5.
Princes three in worship bent,
Incense, gold, and myrrh present:
King of kings, above, below, Gloria uni Deo!
Refrain.
