Rejoice and be merry in song and in mirth
O praise our Redeemer, all mortals on earth!
For this is the birthday of Jesus our King
Who brought us salvation: his praises we'll sing
A heavenly vision appeared in the sky
Vast numbers of angels the shepherds did spy
Proclaiming the birthday of Jesus our King
Who brought us salvation: his praises we'll sing
Likewise a bright star in the sky did appear
Which led the wise men from the East to draw near
They found the Messiah, sweet Jesus our King
Who brought us salvation: his praises we'll sing
And when they were come, they their treasures unfold
And unto him offered myrrh, incense and gold
So blessed for ever be Jesus our King
Who brought us salvation: his praises we'll sing
