In Dulci Jubilo (Arr. Pearsall)

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 Jesu parvule
I yearn for thee always
Listen to my ditty
O puer optime
Have pity on me, pity
O princeps gloriae
Trahe me post te
Trahe me post te

O patris caritas
O patris caritas
O nati lenitas
O nati lenitas
Deeply were we stained
Deeply were we stained
Per nostra crimina
Per nostra crimina

But thou has for us gained
But for us thou has gained
Coelorum gaudia
Coelorum gaudia
O that we, that were there
O that we were there
O, o that we were there

Ubi sunt gaudia
Ubi sunt gaudia
If that they be not there
There are angels singing
Nova cantica
There the bells are ringing (are ringing)
In Regis curia (Regis curia)
O that we were there (o that we were there)
O that we were there

There are angels singing (angels singing)
There the bells are ringing (the bells are ringing)
In Regis curia (are ringing in Regis curia)
O that we were there
O that we were there
