Text
Refrain:
Gaudete, gaudete! Christus est natus
Ex Maria virgine, gaudete!
Tempus adest gratiae
Hoc quod optabamus,
Carmina laetitiae
Devote reddamus.
Refrain
Deus homo factus est
Natura mirante,
Mundus renovatus est
A Christo regnante.
Refrain
Ezechielis porta
Clausa pertransitur,
Unde lux est orta
Salus invenitur.
Refrain
Ergo nostra cantio,
Psallat iam in lustro;
Benedicat Domino:
Salus Regi nostro.
