Sing we with mirth, joy and solace In honour of this Christemas! 2. In Bethlehem our Saviour, Without food, in a manger Was born - it was his pleasure - Beastes among. Angels heavenly Made harmony And joyful song. Sing we with mirth, joy and solace In honour of this Christemas! 3. The eighty day he was circumcised, Lest Moses' law should be despised; A name to him they have devised, Call him Jesus; For Gabriel His mother did tell That it should be thus.
