For aloft in the height Of this same ender night Choiring angels abrayde Singing "Be not afraid, For to yon be it known That He comes to His own, Bringing peace on earth And good will by this birth, On Christmas Day, On Christmas Day, On Christmas Day in the morning. 2. Oh the moon it shown bright, And the stars were alight, And a [Chorus] of sound Made the welkin resound, And our sheep stood agaze, For the hills were ablaze With a glory of light Like the sun at midnight, And we said, "Let us go Unto Bethlehem now For to see if 'tis so As the angels did vow, And good will by this birth, On Christmas Day, On Christmas Day, On Christmas Day in the morning. 3. And indeed there He lay In a crib full of hay, With the ox and the ass, Sorry courtiers, alas! But the King had for throne Mother's dear lap alone, And for royal array The blue robe of Maid May. So let's fall on our knees, If it so be yon please, For to worship our King And His praises to sing, And good will by this birth, On Christmas Day, On Christmas Day, On Christmas Day in the morning.
