Hymnal: Laudis Corona #19 (1880) First Line: Oh! sing a joyous carol Lyrics: 1 Oh! sing a joyous carol
Unto the holy child,
And praise with gladsome voices
His Mother undefiled;
Our youthful voices greeting
Shall hail our Infant King;
And our sweet Lady listens
When children's voices sing.
2 Who is there meekly lying
In yonder stable poor?
Dear children it is Jesus:
He bids you now adore.
Who is there kneeling by Him,
In virgin beauty fair?
It is our Mother, Mary,
She bids you all draw near.
3 Who is there near the manger
That guards the Holy Child?
It is the great Saint Joseph,
Chaste Spouse of Mary mild:
Dear children, oh! how joyful
With them in heav'n to be!
God grant that none be missing
From that festivity. Languages: English Tune Title: [Oh! sing a joyous carol]
