A Virgin Most Pure 歌词
A Virgin Most Pure - Choirs of Bath/Winchester Cathedral
Written by：Traditional
A virgin most pure as the prophets do tell
Hath brought forth a baby as it hath befell
To be our redeemer from death hell and sin
Which Adam's transgression has wrapped us in
Aye and therefore be you merry
Rejoice and be merry
Set sorrows aside
Christ Jesus our saviour
Was born on this tide
At Bethlehem city in Jewry a city there was
Where Joseph and Mary together did pass
And there to be taxed with many one more
For casar commanded the same should be so
Aye and therefore be you merry
Rejoice and be merry
Set sorrows aside
Christ Jesus our saviour
Was born on this tide
But when they had entered the city so fair
A number of people so mighty was there
That Joseph and Mary whose substance was small
Could get in the city no lodging at all
Aye and therefore be you merry
Rejoice and be merry
Set sorrows aside
Christ Jesus our saviour
Was born on this tide
Then were they constrained in a stable to lie
Where oxen and asses they used to tie
Their lodging so simple they held it no scorn
But against the next morning our savior was born
Aye and therefore be you merry
Rejoice and be merry
Set sorrows aside
Christ Jesus our saviour
Was born on this tide
