:::''1.'' :On this day earth shall ring :with the song children sing :to the Lord, Christ our King, :born on earth to save us; :him the Father gave us. :Refrain: ::Id-e-o-o-o, id-e-o-o-o, ::Id-e-o gloria in excelsis Deo! :::''2.'' :His the doom, ours the mirth; :when he came down to earth, :Bethlehem saw his birth; :ox and ass beside him :from the cold would hide him. :Refrain :::''3.'' :God's bright star, o'er his head, :Wise Men three to him led; :kneel they low by his bed, :lay their gifts before him, :praise him and adore him. :Refrain :::''4.'' :On this day angels sing; :with their song earth shall ring, :praising Christ, heaven's King, :born on earth to save us; :peace and love he gave us. :Refrain
