1.
People, look East, the time is near of the crowning of the year.
Make your house fair as you are able.
Trim the hearth and set the table.
Love, the Guest, is on the way.
2. Furrows, be glad, though earth is
bare. One more seed is planted
there; give up your strength the seed to nourish
That in course the flow’r may flourish.
People look East and sing today; Love, the Rose, is on the way.
3. Stars, keep the watch when night
is dim. One more light the bowl
shall brim. Shining beyond the
frosty weather, bright as sun and moon together.
Love, the Star, is on the way.
4. Angels, announce on this great
feast, him who cometh from the East.
Set ev’ry peak and valley humming with the word, the Lord is coming.
Love, the Lord, is on the way.
