[Verse 1]
I saw three ships come sailing in
Come sailing in, come sailing in
I saw three ships come sailing in
⁠On Christmas day in the morning

[Verse 2]
And what was on those ships all three
⁠On Christmas day, on Christmas day?
And what was on those ships all three
⁠On Christmas day in the morning?

[Verse 3]
Our Saviour Christ and His lady
And His lady, and His lady
Our Saviour Christ and His lady
⁠On Christmas day in the morning

[Verse 4]
Pray whither sailed those ships all three
⁠On Christmas day, on Christmas day?
Pray whither sailed those ships all three
⁠On Christmas day in the morning?

[Verse 5]
O they sailed to Bethlehem
⁠to Bethlehem, to Bethlehem
O they sailed to Bethlehem
⁠On Christmas day in the morning
[Verse 6]
And all the bells on earth shall ring
On earth shall ring, on earth shall ring
And all the souls on earth shall sing
⁠On Christmas day in the morning

[Verse 7]
Then let us all rejoice amain
Then let us all rejoice amain
Then let us all rejoice amain
⁠On Christmas day in the morning

[Outro]
⁠On Christmas day in the morning
