Unto us is born a Son Lyrics

1. Unto us is born a Son,

King of quires supernal,

See on earth his life begun,

Of Lords the lord eternal.

2. Christ, from heav’n descending low,

Comes on earth a stronger:

Ox and ass their owner know

Be cradled in a manger.

3. This did Herod sore affray.

And grievously bewilder;

So he gave the word to slay.

And slew the little children.

4. Of his love and mercy mild

This the Christmas story:

And O that Mary’s gentle Child

Might lead us up to glory!

5. O and A and A and O,

Cum cantibus in choro,

Let the merry organ go.

Benedicamus Domino.
