Come Ye here!
Behold a wondrous sight,
A child is born in Bethlehem,
A Savior for all mortal men,
His Star adorns the night.

Stay Ye here!
Exalt the infants’ birth,
Three Kings have travelled from the east
and joined with angels, shepherds, beasts
to greet God’s son on Earth.

Go Ye forth!
Proclaim it far and wide,
that Jesus is amongst us all
to share God's love and, lest we fall,
be there right by our side.

Come Ye here!
Your yuletide joy to share,
God’s family of man must sing
and every church bell loud shall ring,
as Christmas fills the air.
