Evergreen, Holly and Laurel

Hail to the morn when Christ is born!

Hosanna in the high­est!

Angels on high sing thro’ the sky!

Hosanna in the high­est!

Shepherds adore the Lamb to­day:

Kings from the east are on their way;

Sing then all in house and hall:

Hosanna!

Christ is born on Christ­mas morn

Hosanna in the high­est!

Cedar and pine now chee­ri­ly twine:

Hosanna in the high­est!

Crown ev­ery scene with ev­er­green:

Hosanna in the high­est!

Now is the reign of dark­ness o’er:

Jesu is king for ev­er­more!

Boughs of the hol­ly this day adorn:

Hosanna in the high­est!

Sharp are the leaves as crowns of thorn:

Hosanna in the high­est!

See

in the ber­ries all blood-red

Blood that

for us

this Babe shall shed:

Laurel and bay bring forth to­day:

Hosanna in the high­est!

Matchless His might in dead­ly fight:

Hosanna in the high­est!

Hail to the Child Im­ma­nu­el!

Conqueror is He of death and hell!
