Christ was born on Christmas day

Hymnal: Laudis Corona #22 (1880) Lyrics: 1 Christ was born on Christmas day; Wreathe the holly, twine the bay; Christus natus hodie: The Babe, the Son, the Holy One of Mary. He is born to set us free, He is born our Lord to be, Ex Maria Virgine; The God, the Lord by all adored forever. 2 Let the bright red berries glow Ev'rywhere in goodly show; Christus natus hodie: The Babe, the Son, the Holy One of Mary. Christian men, rejoice and sing; 'Tis the birthday of a King, Ex Maria Virgine; The God, the Lord by all adored forever. 3 Night of sadness, Morn of gladness, Evermore; Ever, ever: After many troubles sore; Morn of gladness, evermore and evermore; Midnight scarcely passed and over, Drawing to this holy morn, Very early, very early Christ was born. 4 Sing out with bliss, His name is this, Emanuel: As was foretold, In days of old, By Gabriel, Midnight scarcely passed and over, Drawing to this holy morn, Very early, very early Christ was born. Languages: English Tune Title: [Christ was born on Christmas day]

Anonymous

Person Name: Anon. Author of "Christ was born on Christmas day" in The Church Hymnal In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.

Thomas Helmore

1811 - 1890 Harmonizer of "[Christ was born on Christmas Day]" in The Cyber Hymnal A graduate of Magdalen College, Oxford, England, Thomas Helmore (b. Kidderminster, Worcestershire, England, 1811; d. Westminster, London, England, 1890) was ordained a priest in the Church of England, but his main contribution to the church was in music. He was precentor at St. Mark's College, Chelsea (1842-1877), and master of the choristers in the Chapel Royal for many years. He promoted unaccompanied choral services and played an important part in the revival of plainchant in the Anglican Church. Helmore was involved in various publications of hymns, chants, and carols, including A Manual of Plainsong (1850) and The Hymnal Noted (with John Mason Neale). Bert Polman
