¶Lyrics / Text

1. In Bethlehem, that noble place, As by the prophet said it was, Of the virgin Mary, filled with grace, Salvator mundi natus est. Refrain: Be we merry in this feast, In quo Salvator natus est. 2. On Christmas night, an angel told The shepherds watching by their fold, In Bethlehem, full nigh the wold, Salvator mundi natus est. Refrain 3. The shepherds were encompassed right, About them shone a glorious light, Dread ye naught, said the angel bright, “Salvator mundi natus est.” Refrain 4. No cause have ye to be afraid, For why? this day is Jesus laid On Mary’s lap, that gentle maid: Salvator mundi natus est. Refrain 5. And thus in faith find Him, ye shall, Laid poorly in an ox’s stall. The shepherds then lauded God all, Quia Salvator natus est. Refrain
