Carol 395,
Rev. Charles Lewis Hutchins,
Carols Old and Carols
New
(Boston: Parish Choir, 1916)
1. Waken, Christians, greet the morn
Happy day when Christ was born;
Your hearts with faith and pray’r adorn,
To welcome Christmas morning.
Chorus
Carol sweetly, Carol Sweetly,
Christ the Lord is born!
Sing, O sing His praises meetly,
Welcome Christmas morn!
Welcome Christmas morn!
2. Old men, young men, children gay,
Maidens sweet in bright array,
Come, greet, O greet His festal day,
And welcome Christmas morning! Chorus
3. Deck His house with garlands fine,
Feath’ry wreaths of box and pine,
And hail the Prince of David’s line,
On welcome Christmas morning! Chorus
4. Offer Him your incense sweet,
Holy love and homage meet;
With hearts’ devotion let us greet
The King, on Christmas morning! Chorus
