RETURN
Into this world now is come
The Early English Carols, No. 273
Burden:
Into this world now is come
Christe Redemptor omnium.
Verses 1 & 2:
O worthy Lord and most of might
Eterne Rex Altissime
Thee to honour me thinkest right
Jam lucis orto sidere.
As thou art Lord of worthiness
Conditor alme siderum
All us to bring out of darkness
Christe Redemptor omnium.
Burden:
Into this world now is come
Christe Redemptor omnium.
Verses 3 & 4:
With beames clear of righteousness
Aurora lucis rutilat
In joy thereof with all gladness
Vox clara, ecce intonat.
Now glorious Lord and worthy king
Jesu Salvator seculi
Grant us thy bliss everlasting
Summi largitor primii.
Burden:
Into this world now is come
Christe Redemptor omnium.
