Come all you true good Christians,

That liveth here on earth,

O salutate the morning

Of our Blessed Saviour's birth.

This is the happy morning!

This is the blessed morn!

To save us all from ruin

The Son of God was born.

Come, Christians all, behold the Lamb,

That on this day was born;

O come and praise His Holy Name

And usher in the morn.

This is the happy, etc.

Now to the Father, to the Son,

Be praise and glory giv'n;

Let saints on earth with angels join

The harmony of heaven.

This is the happy morning!

This is the blessed morn!

To save us all from ruin

The Son of God was born.
