The first day when Christ was born, There sprang a rose out of a thorn, To save mankind that was forlorn: I thank (it) a maiden every deal. 2. In an ox-stall the Child was found, In poor clothing the Child was wound; He suffered many a deadly wound; I thank (it) a maiden every deal. 3. A garland of thorns on His head was set, A sharp spear to His heart was smet; The Jews saiden, "Take Thee that!" I thank (it) a maiden every deal. 4. The Jews did cry their parliament; On the day of judgement, They were afeared they should be shent. I thank it a maiden every deal. 5. To the pillar He was bound, To His heart a spear was stung; For us He suffered a deadly wound. I thank it a maiden every deal. Browse Carols: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z #
