-'''1.'''
-:Come, ye lofty, come, ye lowly,
-:Let your songs of gladness ring;
-:In a stable lies the Holy,
-:In a manger rests the King:
-:See in Mary’s arms reposing
-:Christ by highest Heav’n adored:
-:Come, your circle round Him closing,
-:Pious hearts that love the Lord.
-'''2.'''
-:Come ye poor, no pomp of station
-:Robes the Child your hearts adore;
-:He, the Lord of all salvation,
-:Shares your want, is weak and poor:
-:Oxen, round about behold them;
-:Rafters naked, cold, and bare,
-:See the shepherds, God has told them
-:That the Prince of Life lies there.
-'''3.'''
-:Come, ye children, blithe and merry,
-:This one Child your model make;
-:Christmas holly, leaf, and berry,
-:All be prized for His dear sake:
-:Come ye gentle hearts and tender,
-:Come ye spirits keen and bold;
-:All in all your homage render,
-:Weak and mighty, young and old.
-'''4.'''
-:High above a star is shining,
-:And the wise men haste from far:
-:Come, glad hearts, and spirits pining—
-:For you all has ris’n the star.
-:Let us bring our poor oblations,
-:Thanks and love, and faith and praise;
-:Come, ye people, come, ye nations,
-:All in all draw nigh to gaze.
-'''5.'''
-:Hark the Heav’n of heav’ns is ringing:
-:Christ the Lord to man is born!
-:Are not all our hearts, too, singing,
-:Welcome, welcome, Christmas morn?
-:Still the Child, all power possessing,
-:Smiles as through the ages past;
-:And the song of Christmas blessing
-:Sweetly sinks to rest at last.
