1 Welcome be Thou, Heaven King,
Welcome born in one morning,
Welcome for whom we shall sing,
Welcome for whom we shall sing,
Welcome Yule.

2 Welcome be ye, Stephen and John,
Welcome Innocents every one,
Welcome Thomas Martyr one,
Welcome Thomas Martyr one,
Welcome Yule.

3 Welcome be ye, good New Year,
Welcome Twelfth Day, both in fere,
Welcome saintes lef and dear,
Welcome saintes lef and dear,
Welcome Yule.

4 Welcome be ye, Candlemas,
Welcome be ye, Queen of Bliss,
Welcome both to more and less,
Welcome both to more and less,
Welcome Yule.

5 Welcome be ye, that are here,
Welcome all that make good cheer,
Welcome all, another year,
Welcome all, another year,
Welcome Yule.
