lyrics

Verse 1
Good Christian friends, rejoice
with heart and soul and voice;
now give heed to what we say:
Jesus Christ was born today.
Ox and ass before him bow,
asleep within the manger now.
Christ is born today!
Christ is born today!

Verse 2
Good Christian friends, rejoice
with heart and soul and voice;
now you know of endless bliss:
Jesus Christ was born for this!
God has opened heaven's door,
and you are blest forevermore.
Christ was born for this!
Christ was born for this!

Verse 3
Good Christian friends, rejoice
with heart and soul and voice;
now you need not fear the grave:
Jesus Christ was born to save!
Calls you one and calls you all
to gain the everlasting hall.
Christ was born to save!
Christ was born to save!
