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 pa**
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 pa**;
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 a**
And all for our trespa**
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!'
