Three angels came to visit me
And brought with them such riches to see
Before my eyes their gifts they did show
In dulci, dulci jubilo!

The first to me did turn and say:
Have faith for God this very day
A child, he brings, this earth to bless
Mirabile, miranda res!

In time, the next did sing hereto:
Rejoice for hope is born anew
All sorrow now at once dispel
Natus Emmanuel!

Did then, the third, proclaim above:
All things on earth are ruled by love
For loving hearts are hearts well blessed
In quo Christus natus est!

Oh! may these gifts foreer be mine;
New faith, new hope, new love divine,
All happiness, will now ensure,
Gaudeamus igitur!

All men should know that by their side
Are angels there to teach and to guide
Then look to them and hear them sing:
Hallelujah to the King!
Hallelujah to the King!
Hallelujah to the King!
