Now We Praise Christ, The Holy One,
The Blessed Virgin Mary’s Son,
Far As The Glorious Sun Doth Shine,
Even To The World’s Remote Confine.
He Who Himself All Things Did Make
A Servant’s Form Vouchsafed To Take
That He As Man Mankind Might Win
And Save His Creatures From Their Sin.
The Grace And Power Of God The Lord
Upon The Mother Was Outpoured;
A Virgin Pure And Undefiled
In Wondrous Wise Conceived A Child.
The Noble Mother Bore A Son
For So Did Gabriel’s Promise Run
Whom John Confessed And Leaped With Joy
Ere Yet The Mother Knew Her Boy.
Upon A Manger Filled With Hay
In Poverty Content He Lay;
With Milk Was Fed The Lord Of All,
Who Feeds The Ravens When They Call.
The Heavenly Choirs Rejoice And Raise
Their Voice To God In Songs Of Praise.
To Humble Shepherds Is Proclaimed
The Shepherd Who The World Hath Framed.
All Honour Unto Christ Be Paid,
Pure Offspring Of The Favoured Maid,
With Father And With Holy Ghost,
Till Time In Endless Time Be Lost.
