w: Fol-low-ing straight the No-el star? Birds from the woods in won-drous flight, Beth-le-hem seek this ho-ly night?
w:In-to this sta-ble, poor and drear? Hast'-ning we seek the new-born king, and all our sweet-est mu-sic bring.
w: Phil-o-mel too with ten-der heart, Chants from her leaf-y dark re-treat, Re, mi, fa sol, in ac-cents sweet
w:Come where the Son of God doth lie; Christ on* earth with man doth dwell, join in the shout no-el, no-el.
