[00:03.61] I come to hevin which to tell

[00:24.10] And I will of them say and sing.
[00:29.81]
[00:30.99] This day to you is born ane child
[00:37.77] Of Marie meik and Virgin mild
[00:45.40] That bliss it bairn bening and kind
[00:55.36] Sall you rejoyce baith hart and mind.
[01:02.27]
[01:05.10] Lat us rejoyis and be blyth
[01:11.76] And with the Hyrdis go full swyth
[01:18.36] And see what God of his grace hes done
[01:24.98] Throu Christ to bring us to his throne
[01:31.04]
[01:31.95] My saull and life stand up and see
