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]
