(An old English Carol)

My Mother - Mrs. Stella Pais (1902-1972)

I dedicate this music to my mother, Mrs. Stella Pais from whom I learnt i t as a child of 5.

 

The Snow lay on the ground the stars shone bright
When Christ our Lord was born on Christmas night.
When Christ our Lord was born on Christmas night
Venite adoremus Dominum
Venite adoremus Dominum
Venite adoremus Dominum

 

 

'Twas Mary daughter pure of Holy Anne.
That brought into this world the God made Man.
She laid Him in a stall in Bethlehem.
Venite adoremus Dominum
Venite adoremus Dominum
Venite adoremus Dominum

 

 

Saint Joseph too was near to tend the Child
To guard Him and protect His mother mild
The angels hovered round and sang this song.
Venite adoremus Dominum
Venite adoremus Dominum
Venite adoremus Dominum

 

 

And thus that manger poor became a throne
For He whom Mary bore was God the Son.
O come then let us join the heavenly host
To praise the Father, Son and Holy Ghost
Venite adoremus Dominum
Venite adoremus Dominum
