The New Nativity
(A Carol for Male Voices) Words by C. Duncan Jones Music by [illegible] Treharve
Well they knew what they would find,
Those Lords of the uplifted mind,
Faring through the midnight sand
Of a disregarded land.
In a crowded hostel's byre
Lay, at last, the World's Desire.
In a stable slept their King
From a stable let us sing;
Nowell, nowell, nowell, men.
Christ is come on Earth again.
