Hymn 133
Now Is Born the Divine Christ Child
Verse 1
He was born in a stable bare,
On bed of straw how
He sleeps so soundly,
He was born in a stable bare,
Let us worship and to Him bow.
On bed of straw how
He sleeps so soundly,
He was born in a stable bare,
Let us worship and to Him bow.
Chorus
Now is born the divine Christ child,
Play the musette, play the tuneful oboe,
Now is born the divine Christ child,
Sing we all and rejoice this day.
Play the musette, play the tuneful oboe,
Now is born the divine Christ child,
Sing we all and rejoice this day.
Verse 2
Ages long since are past and gone,
When the wise men foretold
His coming,
Ages long since are past and gone,
When the wise men foretold His birth.
When the wise men foretold
His coming,
Ages long since are past and gone,
When the wise men foretold His birth.

Now is born the divine Christ child,

Now is born the divine Christ child,
Sing we all and rejoice this day.
Play the musette, play the tuneful oboe,
Now is born the divine Christ child,
Sing we all and rejoice this day.
