Remember, O thou man
O thou man, O thou man
Remember O thou man
Thy time is spent
Remember, O thou man
How thou cams't to me then
And I did what I can
Therefore repent

Remember Adam's fall
O thou man, O thou man!
Remember Adam's fall
From heaven to hell!
Remember Adam's fall
How we were condemned all
To hell perpetual
There for to dwell

Remember God's goodness
O thou man, O thou man!
Remember God's goodness
And promise made!
Remember God's goodness
How His only Son He sent
Our sins for to redress
Be not afraid
The angels all did sing
O thou man, O thou man!
The angels all did sing
On Sion hill
O thou man, O thou man!
The angels all did sing
Praises to our glorious King
And peace to man living
With a good will!'

The Shepherds amazed was
O thou man, O thou man!
The Shepherds amazed was
To hear the angels sing
The Shepherds amazed was
How it should come to pass
That Christ our Messias
Should be our King!

To Bethlehem did they go
O thou man, O thou man!
The shepherds three;
O thou man, O thou man!
To Bethlehem did they go
To see whether it were so
Whether Christ were borne or no
To set man free
As the Angels before did say
O thou man, O thou man!
As the Angels before did say
So it came to pass;
As the Angels before did say
They found him wrapt in hay
In a manger, where he lay
So poor he was

In Bethlehem he was born
O thou man, O thou man!
In Bethlehem he was born
For mankind's sake;
In Bethlehem he was born
For us that were forlorn
And therefore took no scorn
Our sins to bear

In a manger laid he was
O thou Man, O thou Man
In a manger laid he was
At this time present
In a manger laid he was
Between an ox and an ass
And all for our trespass
Therefore repent
Give thanks to God always
O thou man, O thou man!
Give thanks to God always
With heart most joyfully
Give thanks to God always
Upon this blessed day
Let all men sing and say:
'Holy, holy!'
