Sing We Merry Christmas

Author: C. T. Bowen Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 15 hymnals Matching Instances: 15 Lyrics: 1. Sing we merry Christmas, Christmas blithe and free! Time of holy gladness, Mirth and minstrelsy. Hark! the merry church bells Ringing joyously, Hailing with sweet music Christ’s nativity. 2. Haste we to the temple, Wreathe our garlands green; Deck each arch and column For the festive scene. Glory in the highest! Hark the angels sing; Glory in the highest To our infant King! 3. Pastor, choir, and people Join in concert all; Sing your loudest praises At our festival. Joy for us poor exiles Comes this happy morn; Jesus our Emmanuel, Christ, the Lord, is born! Used With Tune: MERRY CHRISTMAS Text Sources: Carols for Use in Church, by Richard R. Chope (London: William Clowes & Sons, Limited, 1894)
