The words

Verse 1
A virgin most pure, as the prophets do tell, Hath brought forth a baby, as it hath befell; To be our Redeemer from death, hell, and sin, Which Adam’s transgression had wrapped us in. Aye, and therefore be merry; Rejoice, and be you merry; Set sorrow aside; Christ Jesus our Saviour was born at this tide.

Free to sing: Charles Wood died in 1926.
