Puer natus est nobis is the introit for the Mass of Christmas Day and, in the Extraordinary Form, the Octave of Christmas. It is drawn from Isaiah 9:2; the verse is from Psalm 98 (97) and the antiphon is repeated after the Gloria Patri.
Morales and Macchi set a shorter (and unidentified) text with 2 verses from Luke and John with alleluias. Senfl sets the standard antiphon, beginning after a plainsong intonation.
Neither of these shold be confused with the non-liturgical hymn Puer natus in Bethlehem. There is also an antiphon for vespers of The Nativity of John the Baptist, Puer qui natus est (LU p.1343).
