-.Now blessed be Thou, Christ Jesu;
-Thou are man borne, this is true:
-The aungels made a mery noyse,
-Yet have we more cause to rejoyse.
-Kirieleyson.
-.The blessed Sonne of God onely
-In a cryybe full poore dyd lye:
-With oure poore flesh and oure blounde
-Was clothed that everlastynge good.
-Kirieleyson.
-.He that made heaven and earth of nought
-In our flesh hath oure health brought;
-For oure sake made He hymselfe full small;
-That reigneth Lorde and Kynge over all.
-Kirieleyson.
-.Eternall lyght doth now appeare
-To the worlde both farre and neare;
-It shyneth full clear even at mydnight,
-Makynge us chyldren of His Lyght.
-Kirieleyson.
-.The Lord Christ Jesu, Godd's Sonne deare,
-Was a gest and a straunger here;
-Us for to brynge from mysery,
-That we might lyve eternally,
-Kirieleyson.
-.Into this worlde ryght poore came He,
-To make us ryche in mercye:
-Therefore wolde He oure synnes forgeve,
-That we with Hym in heaven myght lyve.
-Kirieleyson.
-.All this dyd He for us frely,
-For to declare His great mercy:
-All Christendome be mery therfore,
-And geve Hym thankes evermore.
-Kirieleyson.
