Leave your ewes aneath the fell, Nor fear the wolf from off the mountain: Speed to Bethlem, past the well, Whence Davy drew, old Jesse's Fountain. [Refrain]. 2. There the Child, fore-seen of old By bards in true prophetick story, Him a Maiden's arms enfold, The Saviour Christ, the Lord of glory. [Refrain]. 3. In a shed where cattle stand, The heav'nly Babe, there shall ye find him: In a cratch, with swathing band The Ever-Virgin the doth wind him. [Refrain]. 4. 'Glory be to God on high,' To-day the Angel-host is singing: 'Peace on earth, good-will,' they cry: So, Church-men, let your bells a-ringing. [Refrain]. 5. And though the night be airy, Go, like them of the prairie, Hail that God, this globe who trod, And born was of our Lady Mary. [Refrain].
