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 be yours and love be mine,
Love to God and all men,
love for plea and gift and sign.
