Christmas Hymn歌词完整版
Kyrie, Kyrie, Kyrie, Eleyson.
Now blessed be Thou, Christ Jesu:
Thou art man born, this is true:
The angels made a merry noise,
Yet have we more cause to rejoice.
The blessed son of God only
In a crib full poor did lie;
With our poor flesh and our poor blood
Was cloth’d that everlasting good.
He that made Heav’n and earth of nought
In our flesh hath our health brought;
For our sake made He himself full small,
That reigneth Lord and King over all.
The Lord, Christ Jesu, God’s son dear,
Was a guest and a stranger here;
Us for to bring from misery,
That we might live eternally.
Eternal light doth now appear
To the world both far and near,
It shineth full clear ev’n at midnight,
Making us children of His light.
Into this world right poor came He
To make us rich in mercy;
Therefore would He our sins forgive,
That we with Him in Heaven might live.
All this did He for us freely,
For to declare His great mercy;
All Christendom be merry therefore
And give Him thanks evermore.
Kyrie, Kyrie, Kyrie, Eleyson.
