Good Christian Men, Rejoice

1 Good Christian men, rejoice  
With heart and soul and voice!  
Give ye heed to what we say:  
News! News!  
Jesus Christ is born today!  
Ox and ass before Him bow,  
And He is in the manger now.  
Christ is born today!  
Christ is born today!  

2 Good Christian men, rejoice  
With heart and soul and voice!  
Now ye hear of endless bliss:  
Joy! Joy!  
Jesus Christ was born for this!  
He hath opened heaven's door  
And man is blessed forevermore.  
Christ was born for this!  
Christ was born for this!  

3 Good Christian men, rejoice  
With heart and soul and voice!  
Now ye need not fear the grave:  
Peace! Peace!  
Jesus Christ was born to save!  
Calls you one and calls you all  
To gain His everlasting hall.  
Christ was born to save!  
Christ was born to save!
