Lyrics (preview)

Christmas people gather near and put away all doubt and fear, shout and sing be of good cheer

Rejoice, for Christ is born

Sing unto the lord with joyful noise!

Bring unto the Lord a tuneful voice

Ring the news let the world rejoice. Rejoice, for Christ is born

Shepherds go and see the one Delight at all that love has done;

for God has given us a song: Rejoice for Christ is born

Hodie Christus Natus est

Come rejoicing, come rejoicing

Sing for Christ is born

People come and gather round and join as one with a joyful sound

come with me to David's town rejoice, for Christ is born

Glory be to God on high. Let's all create new replies.

Lift your voice to the sky.

Rejoice, for Christ is born.

Sing unto the lord with Joyful noise; bring unto the lord a tuneful voice. Ring the news, let the world rejoice for Christ the lord is born

rejoice for Christ is born
