Original text and translations
English text
- 1.
On Christmas night all Christians sing
To hear the news the angels bring.
News of great joy, news of great mirth,
News of our merciful King's birth.
- 2.
Then why should men on earth be so sad,
Since our redeemer made us glad,
When from our sin he set us free
All for to gain our liberty?
- 3.
When sin departs before his grace,
Then life and health come in its place;
Angels and men with joy may sing,
All for to see the new-born King.
- 4.
All out of darkness we have light,
Which made the angels sing this night:
'Glory to God and peace to men,
Now and for evermore. Amen.'
