The Christ Child is coming, - rejoice!, exult!
Silence the world’s frenzied tumult,
Let strife and contention come to an end
The child holds peace and joy in its hand.

Open up wide your heart’s humble inn
To let the heavenly child come in!
Make room for it, fill plate and cup
And let it with you dine and sup.

Washed white like snow will be guilt and sin
If only you let this child come in.
Open your arms to the heavenly child
Desirous that God be to man reconciled.

With grace this child showers the welcoming host
And fills with abundance the poor and the lost,
Open up wide your heart’s humble inn
Let Love Eternal - the Christ Child come in!
