Nun is sie ershienen, die himmlische Sonne

und strahlt durch die irdische Nacht

Darum trocknet die Tranen und jauchzet vor Wonne

Denn den Menschen is Heil nun in Christo gebracht

Dwm Heiland sei Ehre, und Friede der Walt

In Christo dem Retter

is Heil un bestellt

Now the Heavenly Son has appeared in the darkness

and chased all our sorrow away

Let us dry every tear and proclaim with amazement

that Christ our Redeemer was born on this day.

To God be the honor, to God be the praise

The Heavenly Son changes night into day

How the world lies in bondage, in death and destruction

humanity cries out in pain

But the light of the Saviour brings comfort and healing

and all who believe will find peace in his name
