The world to quiet peace,
That all the noise of bloody
wars
In every land did cease;
Just Joseph, with his Mary mild,
To Bethlehem did
come,
Which blessed place appointed was
To ease her burden'd womb
Chorus
O sing
we all, with heart and voice,
Let Christian love increase,
For unto us this day is
born
The only Prince of Peace.
Then, all the town being full of guests,
Such was
their helpless case,
That not a bed for them was left,
Nor any lodging place;
But in a
poor and simple inn,
Even an ox's stall
Appointed was to entertain
The Saviour of us
all. Chorus
No mantle, nor no rich attire,
No swaddling bands, nor linen rare,
No
costly robes, nor golden treasure,
Could Jesus Christ our Lord have there.
No other nurse
nor lullaby,
But blessed Mary's arms,
To rock this blessed babe to sleep,
With heavenly
hymns and charms. Chorus
Thus was the Son of God not born
In majesty and state,
As
Princes of the Nations be,
Tho' he a Prince most great:
Yet at his blessed birth the
choirs
Of heavenly Angels sing,
And every thing for Jury's King
Rejoiced with
thanksgiving. Chorus
O Holy, Holy, Lord of Hosts,
This was their joy and
mirth,
Which sounded out on every coast,
For Jesus Christ his birth.
Both Cherubim, and
Seraphim,
With all the Hosts of Heaven,
With joyful voice sang praises forth,
To glorify
this even. Chorus
And when that blessed morning came
That God's dear Son was
born,
A glorious Star with blazing beams
Did all the skies adorn,
Which unto Shepherds
in the fields
The first of all appear'd;
