This is one of my favourite Christmas songs.  It was apparently first printed in the 1830's.


Tomorrow shall be my dancing day,
I would my true love did so chance
To see the legend of my play
And call my true love to my dance.

Chorus:
Sing O my love, O my love, my love, my love
This have I done for my true love.

Then was I born of virgin pure,
Of her I took fleshly substance.
Thus was I knit to man's nature
To call my true love to my dance.

In manger laid and wrapped I was,
So very poor this was my chance,
Between an ox and a silly poor ass,
To call my true love to my dance.


Have a beautiful, blessed Christmas. :)

Cold vibes go through my body until I think about the Christmas story and then I get refreshed and renewed. Only a virgin birth and a baby in swaddling cloth can be the savior of the world. It gives me a reason to live and be happy.
