Anthems

Noël nouvelet, we sing a new-born King.
With our earthly song the firmament shall ring.
See how the love of God such joy doth bring.
‘Noël nouvelet’ for Christ the new-born King.

‘Shepherds from the fields, let gladness fill your mind.
Go to Bethlehem, the Lamb of God to find!’
Lo, from the sky the angel voices sing
‘Noël nouvelet’ for Christ the new-born King.

Soon the three wise men, who by a star were led,
Journeyed from the East, and at the lowly bed
Each bowed the knee and made an offering:
‘Noël nouvelet’ for Christ the new-born King.

Take my heart, Lord Jesus, who for me wast slain,
Thou who on the cross hast borne my grief and pain,
Bringing me healing through Thy suffering.
‘Noël nouvelet’ for Christ the new-born King.
