-, as the prophets do tell,
-hath brought forth a Baby, as it hath befell,
-to be our Redeemer from death, hell and sin,
-which Adam’s transgression has wrapped us in.
-At Bethlehem city, in Jewry it was
-where Mary and Joseph together did pass,
-and there to be taxed, with many one more,
-for Caesar commanded the same should be in.
-R.: So let us be merry, put sorrows aside;
-Christ Jesus, our Savior was born on this tide.
-But, when they had entered the city so fair
-a number of people so mighty was there,
-that Joseph and Mary, whose substance was small,
-could get in the city no lodging at all.
-Then were they constrained in a stable to lie,
-where oxen and asses they used to tie;
-their lodging so simple, they held it no scorn,
-but against the next morning, our Savior was born.
-R.
-The king of all glory to this world being brought,
-small store of fine linen to wrap him was sought,
-and when she had swaddled her young son so sweet,
-within an ox manger she laid him to sleep.
-R.
