Representative lyrics
Danish (Original Language)
1. Julen har englelyd, vi med frydos barnlig på Gud Fader forlader.Vi var i nød så længe,dog hørte han vor bøn,han ved, hvortil vi trænge,vor Frelser blev Guds Søn;thi vil vi alle sjungemed hjerte og med tungeet: Ære være Gudfor sit julebud!
2. Ret i en salig tid kom han hid;til levende og døde genlødede ord, der fo’r så videtil alle tider henom ham, som tog vor kvideog gav os fryd igen;gik ned for os i døden,som sol i aftenrødenog stod i morgengryop for os påny!
3. Sorg er til glæde vendt, klagen endt,vor glæde skal hver tunge udsjunge.Syng med Guds engleskarepå Jesu fødselsdagom fred, trods nød og fare,Gud Faders velbehag,som vil al sorgen vendetil glæde uden ende,bær os på børnevisind i paradis!
