Awake! ye drowsy souls And hear what I shall tell Remember Christ, the Lamb of God, Redeemed our souls from hell. He's crowned with thorns, spit on with scorn, The Jews have hid themselves. So God send you all a joyful New Year. 2. They bound Christ's body to a tree, And wounded Him full sore; From every wound the blood ran down Till Christ could bleed no more His dying wounds, all rent and tore, Were covered with pearly gore. So God send you all a joyful New Year. 3. And when the Jews had murdered Christ And shown their cruel spite, The sun and moon did hide their heads And went in mourning straight. The heavens stood amazed, and angels gazed, And the earth it was darkened quite. So God send you all a joyful New Year. 4. And when Christ's soul departed And from His body fled, The rocks did rend, the graves did ope And then appeared the dead All they that were there did quake for fear And said it was the Son of God. So God send you all a joyful New Year. 5.
