| White dawn of the Christmas morn | B |
| For the angels have sung through the midnight | C |
| That the wonderful Babe is born | B |
| - | |
| And still in the slumbering valleys | D |
| The night's black tents are up | E |
| And the young moon stands on the mountains | F |
| Clear and fair as a silver cup | E |
| - | |
| Under the cottage rafters | G |
| Silent and soft and deep | H |
| On the swart low brow of the toiler | I |
| Settles the dew of sleep | H |

| Oh sing thy jubilant anthem | K |
| Over the frozen mould | L |

| Along the upward way | I |
| Our footsteps often falter | I |
| And oftea wander astray | I |

| Weary and weak and erring | N |
| In sorrow and doubt and tears | O |
| Shine through the mist and the darkness | P |
| Star of a thousand years | Q |

| Awhile from the dusty marches | R |
| Of life let us find release | S |
| And pitch our tents in the shadow | M |

| Let us hear through the blessed starlight | C |
| The angels of Bethlehem | T |
| Singing Glory to God in the highest | U |
| On earth good will to men | V |
| - | |
| White dawn of the Christmas morning | N |
| Through the snow wreaths shining pale | W |
| Let the joy bells ring through the valleys | D |
| Hail to thy coming hail | W |
