A new Christmas carol, in a traditional style, including a soprano descant for the last verse. The words are an early 20th century English translation of a much older Polish lyric W Żłobie Leży, and the melody lightly echoes a more famous version of a translation Infant Holy, Infant Lowly.
Tell, O shepherds, tell the story
Of the wonders ye have seen;
Of the King of grace and glory
Cradled in a manger mean;
Of th'incarnate Word most holy,
Lying In the stall so lowly.
Cum Maria Virgine.
How ye heard the angels singing
Canticles of holy mirth;
Ev'ry hill and vale a-ringing
With the chorus 'Peace on earth
Peace and love end full salvation
Now is come to all creation.
Christus natus hodie.
He whom Seer and Prophet hoary,
Long fortold in time afore,
Lo, is here in fullest glory,
To abide for evermore.
Holy Babe we bow before Thee.
And on bended knee adore Thee.
Reddens laudes Domino.
