The Huron Carol (‘Twas in the Moon of Winter Time) Lyrics Christmas Carol Song 

‘Twas in the moon of wintertime when all the birds
had fled That mighty Gitchi Manitou sent angel
choirs instead; Before their light the stars grew
dim and wondering hunters heard the hymn, Jesus
your King is born, Jesus is born, in excelsis
gloria.

Within a lodge of broken bark the tender babe was
found; A ragged robe of rabbit skin enwrapped his
beauty round But as the hunter braves drew nigh
the angel song rang loud and high Jesus your King
is born, Jesus is born, in excelsis gloria.
The earliest moon of wintertime is not so round
and fair As was the ring of glory on the helpless
infant there. The chiefs from far before him knelt
with gifts of fox and beaver pelt. Jesus your King
is born, Jesus is born, in excelsis gloria.

O children of the forest free, O seed of Manitou
The holy Child of earth and heaven is born today
for you. Come kneel before the radiant boy who
brings you beauty peace and joy. Jesus your King
is born, Jesus is born, in excelsis gloria.

[The Huron Carol (‘Twas in the Moon of Winter Time) Lyrics Christmas Carol Song]
