Good people all, this Christmastime, 
Consider well and bear in mind 
What our good God for us has done 
In sending his beloved Son. 
With Mary holy we should pray 
To God with love this Christmas Day; 
In Bethlehem upon that morn 
There was a blessed Messiah born.

The night before that happy tide 
The noble Virgin and her guide 
Were long time seeking up and down 
To find a lodging in the town. 
But mark how all things came to pass: 
From ev’ry door repelled, alas! 
As long foretold, their refuge all 
Was but an humble ox’s stall.   

There were three Wise Men from afar 
Directed by a glorious star, 
And on they wandered night and day 
Until they came where Jesus lay. 
And when they came unto that place 
Where our beloved Messiah was 
They humbly cast them at his feet 
With gifts of gold and incense sweet.   

Near Bethlehem did shepherds keep 
Their flocks of lambs and feeding sheep; 
To whom God’s angel did appear 
Which put the shepherds in great fear. 
‘Prepare and go,’ the angel said, 
‘To Bethlehem, be not afraid; 
For there you’ll find, this happy morn, 
A princely babe, sweet Jesus born.' 

With thankful heart and joyful mind, 
The shepherds went the babe to find, 
And as God’s angel had foretold, 
They did our Savior Christ behold. 
Within a manger he was laid, 
And by his side the Virgin maid, 
Attending on the Lord of life, 
Who came on Earth to end all strife.
