Godes Sonne For The Love Of Mane Lyrics

Make we mery in this fest,
For verbum caro factum est.

Godes sonne for the love of mane,
Flesshe and blode of Mary he nam
As in the gospell seyth sent Johan,
Verbum caro factum est.

Of joy and myrth now mow3 we syng,
God with man is now dwellyng,
Holy wrytt makyth now shewyng,
Deus homo natus est.

God and man hath shewyd hys chyld,
That hath us bou3t fro the develys wyld;
Hym to worshyp now be we myld,
Congaudere mihi.

This chyldes moder ever more
Maydyn she was after and before,
And so sayd the prophett in hys lore,
Verbo prophesye.
