Rejoice
Rejoice! Rejoice! Christ is born of the Virgin Mary: Rejoice!
The time of grace has come, This that we have desired;
Let us devoutly sing Songs of joy.
Rejoice! Rejoice! Christ is born of the Virgin Mary: Rejoice!
God is made man, While nature marvels;
The world is renewed By Christ reigning.
Rejoice! Rejoice! Christ is born of the Virgin Mary: Rejoice!
The closed gate of Ezekiel Is passed through;
Whence the light is born, Salvation is found.
Rejoice! Rejoice! Christ is born of the Virgin Mary: Rejoice!
Therefore, let our assembly Sing in brightness;
Let it give praise to the Lord: Salvation to our King.
Rejoice! Rejoice! Christ is born of the Virgin Mary: Rejoice!
