ON CHRISTMAS NIGHT.
1On Christmas night all Christians sing
To hear what news those angels bring;
News of great joy, news of great mirth,
News of our Saviour King's own birth.
2Then why should men on earth be so sad?
Since our Redeemer made us glad,
When from sin He set us free
All for to gain our liberty.
3Now sin depart, behold His grace,
Everlasting life comes in its place,
And soon we shall its terror see
And poor and rich must conquered be.
4Then out of darkness we see light,
Which makes all angels to sing this night:
Glory to God and peace to men
Both now and evermore. Amen.
