A child is born in Bethlehem, Allelujah,
Exult for joy, Jerusalem! Allelujah.

Refrain (Literal translation): With an exultant heart, let us adore Christ, who has been born, with a new song.

By angel Gabriel announced, Allelujah,
The virgin has conceived the Son. Allelujah.

The Son of God the Father, Allelujah,
In the highest has taken flesh, Allelujah.

Lo he who reigns above the skies Allelujah,
There in a manger lowly, lies. Allelujah.

The ox and ass in neighb'ring stall, Allelujah,
See in that child the Lord of all. Allelujah.

And hingly pilgrims, long foretold Allelujah,
From East bring incense, myrrh and gold, Allelujah.

And enter with their offerings, Allelujah,
To hail the newborn King of King. Allelujah.

He comes, a maiden mothers Son, Allelujah,
Yet earthly father has He none; Allelujah.

And from the serpent's poison free, Allelujah,
He owned our blood and pedigree, Allelujah.

Our feeble flesh and His the same, Allelujah,
Our sinless kinsman He became, Allelujah.

That we, from deadly trail set free, Allelujah,
Like Him, and so like God, should be. Allelujah.

Come then, and on his natal day, Allelujah,
Rejoice before the Lord and pray. Allelujah.

And so the holy One in Three. Allelujah,
Give praise and thanks eternally. Allelujah.
