Текст песни Sussex Carol (On Christmas night all Christians sing) - King's College Choir, Cambridge feat. Stephen Cleobury & Benjamin Bayl

On Christmas night all Christians sing
To hear the news the angels bring
On Christmas night all Christians sing
To hear the news the angels bring
News of great joy, news of great mirth
News of our merciful King's birth

Then why should men on earth be so sad
Since our Redeemer made us glad?
Then why should men on earth be so sad
Since our Redeemer made us glad?
When from our sin He set us free
Born for to gain our liberty

And singing but before His grace
Then life has found a meanest place
And singing but before His grace
Then life has found a meanest place
Angels and Heav'n with joy may sing
Born for to seal the King

Born out of darkness, we have light
Which made the angels sing this night
Born out of darkness, we have light
Which made the angels sing this night
Glory to God and peace to men
Now and forevermore
Evermore, amen
