NEW YEAR'S CAROL.
1Awake! Awake! ye drowsy souls
And hear what I shall tell;
Remember Christ, the Lamb of God,
Redeemed our souls from hell.
He's crowned with thorns, spit on with scorn,
The Jews have hid themselves.
So God send you all a joyful New Year.
2They bound Christ's body to a tree,
And wounded Him full sore;
From every wound the blood ran down
Till Christ could bleed no more;
His dying wounds, all rent and tore,
Were covered with pearly gore.
So God send you all a joyful New Year.
