In dulci jubilo,
nun singet und seid froh!
Unsres Herzens Wonne
leit in praesebio
und leuchtet als die Sonne
matris in gremio.
Alpha es et O;
Alpha es et O.

O Jesus parvule,
nach Dir ist mir so weh.
Tröst mir mein Gemüte,
o puer optime
durch alle Deine Güte,
o princeps gloriae.
Trahe me post te;
trahe me post te.

Ubi surit gaudia?
Nirgends mehr denn da,
da die Engel singen
nova cantia
und die Schellen klingen.
In regis curia
eia, wär’n wir da;
eia, wär’n wir da;

Good Christian men, rejoice,
With heart and soul, and voice;
Give ye heed to what we say:
Jesus Christ is born to-day;
Ox and ass before him bow,
And he is in the manger now.
Christ is born to-day!
Christ is born to-day!

Good Christian men, rejoice,
With heart and soul, and voice;
Now ye hear of endless bliss:
Jesus Christ was born for this!
He hath oped the heavenly door,
And man is blessed evermore.
Christ was born for this!
Christ was born for this!

Good Christian men, rejoice,
With heart and soul, and voice;
Now ye need not fear the grave:
Jesus Christ was born to save!
Calls you one and calls you all
To gain his everlasting hall.
Christ was born to save!
Christ was born to save!
