English text
1 Love came down at Christmas,
Love all lovely Love Divine;
Love was born at Christmas,
Star and Angels gave the sign.
2 Worship we the Godhead,
Love Incarnate, Love Divine,
Worship we our Jesus,
But wherewith for sacred sign?
3 Love shall be our token,
Love shall be yours and love be mine,
Love to God and all men,
Love for plea and gift and sign.
