1a. Vom Himmel hoch da komm ich her,
Ich bring' euch gute neue Mär,
Der guten Mär bring ich so viel,
Davon ich sing'n und sagen will.

2a. Euch ist ein Kindlein heut' gebor'n
Von einer Jungfrau auserkor'n,
Ein Kindelein so zart und fein,
Das soll eu'r Freund und Wonne sein.

3a. Lob, Ehr sei Gott im höchsten Thron,
Der uns schenkt seinen ein'gen Sohn,
Des freuen sich der Engel Schar
Und singen uns solch neues Jahr.

4a. Das Kindelein in dem Krippelein,
das liebe schöne Jesulein,
schikket dir der liebste Vater dein,
daß es dein Freud und Wonne sein.
Alleluja.

5a. Psallite Unigenito, Christo,
Dei Filio, Redemptori, Domino,
Puerulo, jacenti in praesepio.

Ein kleines Kindelein
liegt in dem Krippelein.
Alle lieben Engelein
dienen dem Kindelein.

Singt und klingt, Jesu Gottes Kind,
und Marien Söhnelein,
unserm lieben Jesulein
im Krippelein beim Öchslein
und beim Eselein.

6a. Joseph, lieber Joseph mein,
hilf mir wiegen mein Kindelein.
Sause, liebes Kindelein,
Eia!
Sunt impleta quae praedixit Gabriel,
Virgo Deum genuit,
quem divina voluit clementia.
