Christ Was Born on Christmas Day Songtext

von Various

Wreathe the holly, twine the bay;
Christus natus hodie;
The Babe, The Son, the Holy One of Mary.

2, He is born to set us free,
He is born our Lord to be,
Ex Maria Virgine,
The God, the Lord, by all ador'd forever.

Ev'ry where in goodly show,
Christus natus hodie;
The Babe, the Son, the Holy One of Mary.

'Tis the birthday of a King
Ex Maria Virgine;
The God, the Lord, by all ador'd forever.

His name is this: Immanuel!
As twas foretold in days of old,
By Gabriel.

Evermore, ever, ever,
After many troubles sore,
Morn of gladness, evermore and evermore.
Midnight scarcely pass'd and over,
Drawing to this holy morn,
Very early, very early Christ was born.

Emmanuel,
As was foretold in days of old by Gabriel.
Midnight scarcely pass'd and over,
Drawing to this holy morn,
Very early, very early Christ was born.
