1 All hail, ye merry folk today,
All hail, we sing our gladsome lay,
Come list to us as we do say,
Our carol gay.
Refrain:
Noel, Noel, we sing Noel,
And this the angels came to tell,
For God who doeth all things well
With man doth dwell.
2 Begone all gloom, cast grief aside,
May joy with us for aye abide,
What better deed could us betide,
Than death defied. [Refrain]
3 Come let us seek the infant King,
And homage pay, and to Him bring
Our hearts as fittest offering,
And to Him sing. [Refrain]
4 Seek not ye palace rich or grand,
Nor with the greatest men to stand,
But join a lowly pilgrim band
In Israel’s land. [Refrain]
5 Lo! there we find Him, greatest, best,
Who in a manger deigns to rest,
Who by His life ye world hath blest,
Most welcome guest. [Refrain]
6 With us your happy songs unite,
Within your hearts to dwell, invite
The God who doeth all things right,
Your soul to light. [Refrain]
