lyrics

I saw three ships come sailing in
I saw three ships come sailing in

Pray whither sailed those ships all three,
Pray whither sailed those ships all three,

O they sailed into Bethlehem,
O they sailed into Bethlehem,

And all the bells on earth shall ring,
And all the bells on earth shall ring,

And all the angels in Heav’n shall sing,
And all the angels in Heav’n shall sing,

And all the souls on Earth shall sing,
And all the souls on Earth shall sing,

Then let us all rejoice amain,
Then let us rejoice amain,

I saw three ships come sailing in
I saw three ships come sailing in
