Christ is Born of Maiden Fair
Christ is born of maiden fair;
Hark the heralds in the air,
Thus adoring descant there:
'In Excelsis Gloria'.
Shepherds saw those angels bright
Carolling in glorious light:
God, His Son, is born tonight!
'In Excelsis Gloria'.
Christ is come to save mankind,
As in Holy Page we find;
Therefore bear this song in mind:
'In Excelsis Gloria'.
