The snow lay on the ground, the stars shone bright,
when Christ our Lord was born on Christmas night.
Venite adoremus Dominum.
‘Twas Mary, virgin pure, of holy Anne,
that brought into this world the God made man.
She laid Him in a stall at Bethlehem;
the ass and oxen shared the roof with them.

And Joseph, too, was by to tend the Child,
to guard him, and protect His mother mild.
The angels hovered round and sang this song:
Venite adoremus Dominum.
