Hodie Christus natus est
and by his coming earth is blest;
so join with me in roundelay
to praise the Saviour‚ born today.
Hodie Christus natus est‚
a Child contented at the breast:
see love unfathomed‚ love divine
encapsulated in this sign!
Hodie Christus natus est‚
good news to all who are oppressed;
for God is seen with them to stand
in Herod’s‚ as in Pharaoh’s‚ land.
Verses 4-8 follow
L.M.
“Hodie Christus natus est” (“Today is Christ born”)
is the traditional antiphon for Christmas Day.
