111. Sing We Now of Christmas

1. Sing we now of Christmas,
Noel, sing we here!
Hear our grateful praises
to the Babe so dear.

Refrain:
Sing we Noel,
the king is born, Noel!
Sing we now of Christmas,
sing we now Noel!

2. Angels called to shepherds,
"Leave your flocks at rest;
Journey forth to Behtl'hem,
find the Lambkin blest." [Refrain]

3. In the stall they found Him;
Joseph and Mary mild
Seated 'round the manger,
watching the holy Child. [Refrain]

4. From the eastern country
came the kings afar,
Bearing gifts to Bethl'hem,
guided by a star. [Refrain]

5. Gold and myrrh they took there,
gifts of greatest price,
There was ne'er a stable
so like paradise. [Refrain]
