We hope you all have a very Merry Christmas!

Here is our version of the traditional Christmas chant, "Puer Natus!" We hope you enjoy it:)

English translation available in the closed captions.

Description:
“Puer Natus” is our arrangement of two pieces: an ancient hymn called “Puer Natus in Bethlehem,” which we sing in its entirety, (14 verses) and the Introit of the Christmas Day Mass “Puer Natus Est Nobis.” This latter’s text is taken from the book of Isaias 9:6.

We are releasing it today because the 17th of December marks the beginning of the octave before Christmas, a special time to seriously reflect on the coming of the Christ Child and to prepare our hearts for Him. Dec 17-24 are marked by the Magnificat O Antiphons, which spell backwards the message “ERO CRAS,” that is, “I will be tomorrow.” Or “I am coming tomorrow.” This message would be in the voice of the Christ Child, as the last O antiphon occurs on Christmas Eve. These 7 titles address Christ in various ways in reference to Scriptural passages.

Dec 17 - O Saptientia
Dec 18 – O Adonai
Dec 19 – O Radix Jesse
Dec 20 – O Clavis David
Dec 21 – O Oriens
Dec 22 – O Rex Gentium
Dec 23 – O Emmanuel

Please no bad language in the comments. We want this to be family friendly:)


Lyrics:

Puer natus in Bethlehem, Alleluia.
Unde gaudet Jerusalem. Alleluia.

Refrain:
In cordis jubilo, Christum natum adoremus,
Cum novo cantico

Assumpsit carnem filius, Alleluia
Dei Patris altissimus, Alleluia, Alleluia

Per Gabrielem nuntium, Alleluia
Virgo concepit Filium, Alleluia, Alleluia

Tamquam sponsus de thalamo, Alleluia
Processit Matris utero, Alleluia, Alleluia

Hic iacet in praesepio, Alleluia
Qui regnat sine termino, Alleluia, Alleluia

Et Angelus pastoribus, Alleluia
Revelat quod sit Dominus, Alleluia, Alleluia

Reges de Saba Veniunt, Alleluia
Aurum thus myrrham offerunt, Alleluia, Alleluia

Intrantes domum invicem, Alleluia
Novum salutant Principem, Alleluia, Alleluia

De Matre natus Virgine, Alleluia
Sine virili semine, Alleluia, Alleluia

Sine serpentis vulnere, Alleluia
De nostro venit sanguine, Alleluia, Alleluia

In carne nobis similis, Alleluia
Peccato sed dissimilis, Alleluia, Alleluia

Ut redderet nos homines, Alleluia
Deo et sibi similes, Alleluia, Alleluia


Puer natus est nobis
Et filius datus est nobis
Cuius imperium super humerum eius
Et vocabitur nomen eius
Magni consilii Angelus


In hoc natali gaudio, Alleluia
Benedicamus Domino, Alleluia, Alleluia

Laudetur sancta Trinitas, Alleluia
Deo dicamus gratias, Alleluia, Alleluia

Cantate Domino canticum novum
Quia mirabilia fecit

Gloria Patri, et Filio, et Spiritui Sancto
Sicut erat in principio, et nunc, et semper,
Et in secula seculorum. Amen.

Puer natus in Bethlehem, Alleluia.
Unde gaudet Jerusalem. Alleluia.


An English Translation:
A Child is born in Bethlehem, Alleluia
Exult for joy, Jerusalem! Alleluia, Alleluia

Refrain:
With an exultant heart,
let us adore the new-born Christ,
with a new song.

The Son of God the Father, Alleluia
In the highest has taken flesh, Alleluia, Alleluia

By angel Gabriel announced, Alleluia
The virgin has conceived the Son. Alleluia, Alleluia

Like a bridegroom from the chamber, Alleluia
He proceeds from the womb of the mother. Alleluia, Alleluia

Lo He who reigns above the skies, Alleluia
There in a manger lowly, lies. Alleluia, Alleluia

And the angel to the shepherds, Alleluia
Reveals that He is the Lord, Alleluia, Alleluia

And kingly pilgrims, long foretold, Alleluia
From East bring incense, myrrh and gold, Alleluia, Alleluia

And enter with their offerings, Alleluia
To hail the newborn King of Kings. Alleluia, Alleluia

Born of a Virgin Mother bright, Alleluia
Who is light from light; Alleluia, Alleluia

And from the serpent's poison free, Alleluia
He owned our blood and pedigree, Alleluia, Alleluia

Our feeble flesh and His the same, Alleluia
Our sinless kinsman He became, Alleluia, Alleluia

That we, from deadly thrall set free, Alleluia
Like Him, and so like God, should be. Alleluia, Alleluia

A Child is born to us, and a Son is given to us:
Whose government is upon His shoulder:
And His Name shall be called,
The Angel of Great Council

Come then, and on His natal day, Alleluia
Rejoice before the Lord and pray. Alleluia, Alleluia

And to the holy One in Three. Alleluia
Give praise and thanks eternally. Alleluia, Alleluia

Sing ye to the Lord a new canticle:
Because He hath done wonderful things.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be
World without end, Amen.

A Child is born in Bethlehem, Alleluia
Exult for joy, Jerusalem! Alleluia, Alleluia
