Traditional English

Let all that are to mirth inclined

Consider well and bear in mind

What our good God for us has done

In sending his beloved Son

For to redeem our souls from thrall

Christ is the saviour of us all.

The twenty-fifth day of December

We have good cause to remember

In Bethlehem upon that morn

There was a blessed Messiah born

But mark how all things came to pass

The inn and lodgings filled was

That they could find no room at all

But in a straw-filled oxes stall.

Near Bethlehem some shepherds keep

Their flocks and herds of feeding sheep

To whom God's angels did appear

Which put the shepherds in great fear

With thankful heart and joyful mind

The shepherds went this babe to find.

And as the heavenly angel told

They did our saviour Christ behold.

Thre eastern wise men from afar

Directed by a glorious star

Came boldly on? and made no stay.

Until they came where Jesus lay.

And being come unto that place

Where the blessed Messiah was

They humbly laid before his feet

Their gifts of gold and incense sweet.

See how the Lord of heaven and earth

Shewd himself lowly in his birth:

A sweet example for mankind

To learn to bear an humble mind.

Let all your songs and praises be

Unto his heavenly majesty

And evermore amongst our mirth

Remember Christ our Saviour's birth.
