Christmas

And on that day a child did come
And we who were not there were saved
And when the star shone after that
wise men from the east came there.

That God should come himself a man
And we His creatures be relieved
Oh the joy they felt that day
And now again remembered here.

What shall we say in memory?
And what might we so small and weak,
Bring our Lord on this sweet day?
This day that God was born with us.

Oh sweet child we sing to thee
For you are great and now are born
And all our hopes did come that day-
Except that you will come again.
