From heaven above to earth I come
To bear good news to every home;
Glad tidings of great joy I bring
Whereof I now will say and sing.
To you this night is born a child
Of Mary, chosen Virgin mild;
This little child of holy birth
Shall be the joy of all the earth.
Of Mary, chosen Virgin mild;
This little child of holy birth
Shall be the joy of all the earth.
This is the Christ, our God Most High,
Who hears your sad and bitter cry;
He will Himself your Savior be
From all your sins to set you free.
Who hears your sad and bitter cry;
He will Himself your Savior be
From all your sins to set you free.
Ah, dearest Jesus, holy Child,
Prepare a bed, soft, undefiled,
A quiet chamber set apart
For You to dwell within my heart.
Prepare a bed, soft, undefiled,
A quiet chamber set apart
For You to dwell within my heart.
Glory to God in highest heaven,
Who unto us His Son has given!
While angels sing with pious mirth
A glad new year to all the earth.
Who unto us His Son has given!
While angels sing with pious mirth
A glad new year to all the earth.
