1 Carol we the blessing
Of th’Incarnate Word;
Carol we. Confessing
Our arisen Lord.
Carol we, carol we,
Jesus Christ came down to be
Surety on th’accursed tree,
For the sins of men.

2 Mourn we at the scorning
Shower’d upon His head,
While His brow adorning,
Mocking words they said.
Majesty, Divinity,
Clothed with Humanity,
Perfect in humility,
For the sins of men.

3 Carol we the story
Of His dying love;
Carol we the glory
He now shares above.
Carol we, carol we,
Captive led captivity;
Jesus Christ now lives to be
Th’Advocate for men.

4 Carol we the whole earth
Sav’d from sinfulness;
Carol we the new birth
Unto righteousness.
Carol we, carol we,
Th’ever blessed Trinity,
Three in One, and One in Three;
God forevermore.
