From heaven high I come to you,
I bring you tidings good and new;
Good tidings of great joy I bring:
Thereof will I both say and sing.
Now let us all right merry be,
And, with the shepherds, go to see
God’s own dear Son, within the stall;
His gift, bestowed upon us all.
For you a little child is born
Of God’s own chosen maid, this morn:
A fair and tender baby bright,
To be your joy and your delight.
Mark well, my heart; look well, mine eyes;
Who is it in the manger lies:
What child is this, so young and fair?
It is my Jesus lieth there.
Lo, He is Christ, the Lord indeed,
Our God, to guide you in your need:
And He will be your Savior, strong
To cleanse you from all sin and wrong.
Ah, dearest Jesus, be my guest:
Soft be the bed where thou wilt rest,
A little shrine within my heart,
That thou and I may never part.
