There are at least two versions of this Bohemian carol.


Version One:

1. Noel—Noel—Noel
Praise and adore Him
On this morn—Christmas morn—He is born
Hallelujah

2. On that night—Birds in flight—Shining bright
Wise men worship from afar
Mary dear—Joseph near—Night so clear
Jesus was born

3. Ting-a-ling—Hear them ring—Children sing
Angels and shepherds nigh
Mother mild—Holy Child—Undefiled
Jesus is born

Refrain:
Gloria in excelsis
Gloria in excelsis
Christu, Christu, Christus
Natus est

Our Savior’s here.
