Come rejoice, all good Christians, And rejoice now, I pray, For joy our Redeemer Was born on this day, In the city of David, And a cottage so poor: Then rejoice and be your merry, We have blessings in store. [Chorus] And therefore be you merry, Rejoice and be you merry, Set sorrows away, Christ Jesus our Saviour Was born on this day. 2. Our Lord he was born Of a Virgin most pure, Within a poor stable Both safe and secure. He was guarded most safely With Angels so bright, Who told three poor Shepherds Those things in the night. [Chorus] 3. They said, Be not fearful, But to Bethlehem go: Then rejoice and be chearful, For 'tis certainly so. For a young Son to Joseph Is in Bethlehem born: Then rejoice, all good Christians, And cease for to mourn. [Chorus] 4. And when those three Shepherds Did to Bethlehem come, And arrived at the stable, Then in they did run, Where they found blessed Mary With Jesus her Son: There they found our Lord sleeping, And thus they begun. [Chorus] 5. With the sweetest Hallelujah The Heavens did rejoice, With the Saints and the Angels, And all with sweet voice, Crying Glory and honour To our Heavenly King, In the clouds of the air Then this Host they did sing. [Chorus] 6. Then well may we Christians, That dwell on the earth, Rejoice and be glad For sweet Jesus his birth, Who brought us salvation, If we mind but the same: Then let all in the nation Sing praise to his name. [Chorus] 7. With true zeal and honour Let us joyfully sing, In praise of our salvation, To our Heavenly King; To our Heavenly Father, That remaineth above, And to our dear Saviour, That redeem'd us with love.
