Day 21 - Christmas is Coming!

Welcome, Yule! From "Salvator Mundi"

Text: Anonymous (15th century)


Welcome, Yule, in glad array,

In worship of this holiday.

Welcome be thou, Heaven's King,

Welcome, y-born on this morning.
Welcome to thee now will we sing:
Welcome Yule, forever and aye.

Welcome be thou, Mary mild,

Welcome be thou and thy child;
From the fiend thou us shield:
Welcome, Yule, forever and aye.

Welcome be thou, good New Year,

Welcome the twelve days before.
Welcome be ye that all be here:
Welcome, Yule, forever and aye.

Welcome be ye, Lord and Lady,

Welcome be all this company;
For Yules love now, make-is merry!
Welcome, Yule, forever and aye.

Noel.
