Unto Us a Boy Is Born Lyrics

German medieval
recorders, gittern, glockenspiel

Unto us a boy is born!
King of all creation
Came he to a world forlorn,
The Lord of every nation.
Cradled in a stall was he
With sleepy cows and a****;
But the very beast could see
That he all men surpasses.
Herod the with fear was filled:
"A prince," he said, "in Jewry!"
All the little boys he killed
At Bethelehem in his fury.

Now may Mary's son, who came
So long ago to love us,
Lead us all with hearts aflame
Unto the joys above us.

Omega and Alpha he!
Let the organ thunder,
While the choir with peals of glee
Doth render the air a**under.
