Classic Poem

Now joy be to the Trinity,
Father, Son and Holy Ghost,
That One God is in Trinity,
Father of heaven, of mightës most.
Wassail, wassail, wassail, sing we,
In worship of Christ's nativity!

And joy be to the virgin pure,
That ever kept her undefiled,
Grounded in grace, in heart full sure,
And bare a child as maiden mild.
Wassail, wassail, wassail, sing we,
In worship of Christ's nativity!

Bethlehem and the star so sheen,
That shone three kingës for to guide,
Bear witness of this maiden clean;
The kingës three offered that tide.
Wassail, wassail, wassail, sing we,
In worship of Christ's nativity!

And shepherds heard, as written is,
The joyful song that there was sung,
“Gloria in excelsis!”
With angel's voice it was out-rung.
Wassail, wassail, wassail, sing we,
In worship of Christ's nativity!

Now joy be to the blessedful Child
And joy be to His mother dear;
Joy we all of that maiden mild,
And joy have they that make good cheer!
Wassail, wassail, wassail, sing we,
In worship of Christ's nativity!
