the fifth birth歌词
Loreena McKennitt - Let All That Are To Mirth Inclined
Traditional English, arranged by Loreena McKennitt
Let all that are to mirth inclined
Consider well and bear in mind
What our good God for us has done
In sending his beloved Son
For to redeem our souls from thrall
Christ is the saviour of us all.
The twenty-fifth day of December
We have good cause to remember
In Bethlehem upon that morn
There was a blessed Messiah born
But mark how all things came to pass
The inn and lodgings filled was
That they could find no room at all
But in a straw-filled oxes stall.
For to redeem our souls from thrall
Christ is the saviour of us all.
Near Bethlehem some shepherds keep
Their flocks and herds of feeding sheep
To whom God's angels did appear
Which put the shepherds in great fear
With thankful heart and joyful mind
