Der Tag der ist so freudenreich
From ChoralWiki
Source
The first two stanzas are a 15th century version of 14th century christmas song called 'Dies est laetitiae'. The melody most likely is a German tune dating from the Middle Ages. [Dahle, Library of Christians Hymns]. The hymntune appears for the first time in the hymnbook of the Bohemian Brethren by Michael Weisse, 1531. Sometimes the second stanza "Ein Kindelein so löbelich" appears on its own. In a later stage three more stanzas were added.
