Loreena McKennitt Miscellaneous Let All That Are To Mirth Inclined Let all that are to mirth inclined Consider well and bear in mind What our good God for us has done In sending his beloved Son For to redeem our souls from thrall Christ is the saviour of us all. The twenty-fifth day of December We have good cause to remember In Bethlehem upon that morn There was a blessed Messiah born But mark how all things came to pass The inn and lodgings filled was That they could find no room at all But in a straw-filled oxes stall. Near Bethlehem some shepherds keep Their flocks and herds of feeding sheep To whom God's angels did appear Which put the shepherds in great fear With thankful heart and joyful mind The shepherds went this babe to find. And as the heavenly angel told They did our saviour Christ behold. Three eastern wise men from afar, Directed by a glorious star Came boldly on and made no stay, Until they came where Jesus lay. And being come unto that place Where the blessed Messiah was They humbly laid before his feet Their gifts of gold and incense sweet. See how the Lord of heaven and earth Shewd himself lowly in his birth; A sweet example for mankind To learn to bear an humble mind. Let all your songs and praises be Unto his heavenly majesty And evermore amongst our mirth Remember Christ our Saviour's birth. |
