Yoeman's Carol Lyrics

1. Christians all with joyful mirth,
Both young and old, both great and small,
Now think upon our Savior's birth,
Who brought salvation to us all:

[Chorus]
This day did Christ man's soul from death remove
With glorious saints to dwell in heav'n above.

2. lace, but an ox's stall,
The place of His nativity;
This truly should instruct us all
To learn of Him humility. [Chorus]

3. Joseph and the Virgin came
Unto the town of Bethlehem,
But sought in vain within the same
For lodging to be granted them: [Chorus]

4. Stable harbored them, where they
Continued till this blessed morn.
Let us rejoice and keep the day,
Wherein the Lord of life was born: [Chorus]

5. He that descended from above,
Who for your sins has meekly died,
Make Him the pattern of your love;
So will your joys be sanctified: [Chorus]
