In Dulci Jubilo Lyrics

In dulci jubilo, let us our homage show
Our heart's joy reclineth in praesepio
And like a bright star shineth Matris in gremio
Alpha es et o, alpha es et o

O Patris caritas, O Nati lenitas
Deep were we stained per nostra crimina
But thou hast for us gained coelorum gaudia
Oh that we were there, oh that we were there

Ubi sunt gaudia, if that they be not there
There are angels singing, nova cantica
There the bells are ringing, in Regis curia
Oh that we were there, oh that we were there
