1 A glorious angel from Heaven came
Unto the virgin maid;
Strange news and tidings of great joy
The humble Mary had,
The humble Mary had.
2 Each mortal man remembers well,
When Christ came down from Heav’n,
’Twas for our sins and wicked ways
His precious blood was giv’n,
His precious blood was giv’n.
3 Each mortal man remembers well,
When Christ was put to scorn;
He was taken to the judgment seat
And crownèd with the thorn,
And crownèd with the thorn.
4 Each mortal man remembers well,
When Christ our Savior died,
He was crucified upon the tree,
With thieves on either side,
With thieves on either side.
5 Each mortal man remembers well,
How Christ died on the rood,
’Twas for our sins and wicked ways,
Christ shed His precious blood,
Christ shed His precious blood.
6 Each mortal man remembers well,
When Christ was wrapped in clay,
He was taken to a sepulcher
Where never man did lay,
Where never man did lay.
7 God bless your house, your children, too,
Your cattle and your store;
The Lord increase you day by day,
And give you more and more,
And give you more and more.
