A welcome song

Proface, welcome, well come,

For now is born a Child of grace

Who for us men our flesh doth take.

This holy time of Christmas

All woe and sin we should release

And cast away all heaviness.

Then hasten all and enter

We welcome all that now appear

His loving grace shall ye find here.

Well come be this new year

And look ye all be of good cheer

The Lord our God be with us here.
