1. Vær velkommen Herrens år, og velkommen herhid! Julenat, da vor Herre blev fød, da tændte sig lyset i mørkets skød! Velkommen nytår, og velkommen her!
2. Vær velkommen Herrens år, og velkommen herhid! Påskemorgen, da Herren opstod, da livstræet fæsted i graven rod! Velkommen nytår, og velkommen her!
3. Vær velkommen Herrens år, og velkommen herhid! Pinsedag, da Guds ånd kom herned, da nedsteg Guds kraft til vor skrøb’lighed! Velkommen nytår, og velkommen her!
4. Vær velkommen Herrens år, og velkommen herhid! Herrens år med vor Guds velbehag nu bringer os glæde hver Herrens dag! Velkommen nytår, og velkommen her!
