22. To blys God bryng vs all & sum,
Christe redemptor omnium.
1
In Bedlem, in that fayer cite,
A chyld was born of owr Lady,
Lord & prynce þat he shuld be,
A solus ortus cardine.
2
Chyldren were slayn grett plente;
Jhesu, for the love of the,
Lett vs neuer dampned be;
Hostes Herodes ympie!
3
He was born of owr Lady
With owt wemb of her body,
Godis son þat syttyth on hye,
Jhesu saluator seculi.
4
As the son shynnyth thorow þe glas,
So Jhesu in her body was,
To serue hym he geve vs grace,
O lux beata trinitas!
5
Now ys born owr Lord Jhesus,
That mad mery all vs,
Be all mery in thys howse,
Exvltet celum lavdibus!
