What sweeter music can we bring
Than a carol for to sing
The birth of this our heavenly king
Awake the voice ! awake the string!
Dark and dull night
Fly hence away
And give the honour to this day
That sees December turn'd to may
Why does the chilling winter's morn
Smile like a field beset with corn
Or smell like a meadow newly shorn
Thus on the sudden
Come and see
The cause, why things thus fragrant be
‘Tis he is borne,whose quik’ning birth
Give life and luster public mirth
To heaven,and the under earth
We see him come,and know him ours
Who with his sun shine,and his showers
Turns all the patient ground to flowers
The darling of the world is come
And fit it is,we find a room to welcome him
The nobler part of all the house here,is the heart
Which we will give him and bequeath
This holly,and this ivy wreath
To do him honour, who is our king
And lord of all this reveling
What sweeter music can we bring
Than a carol for to sing
The birth of this our heavenly king?
What sweeter music can we bring
Than a carol for to sing
The birth of this our heavenly king?
