I saw three ships come sailing in
On christmas day, on christmas day;
I saw three ships come sailing in
On christmas day in the morning

Pray, wither sailed those ships all three,
On christmas day, on christmas day;
Wither sailed those ships all three,
On christmas day in the morning?

O they sailed into bethlehem,
On christmas day, on christmas day;
They sailed into bethlehem,
On christmas day in the morning

And all the bells on earth shall ring,
On christmas day, on christmas day;
All the bells on earth shall ring,
On christmas day in the morning

And all the souls on earth shall sing,
On christmas day, on christmas day;
All the souls on earth shall sing,
On christmas day in the morning

Then let us all rejoice again,
On christmas day, on christmas day;
Let us all rejoice again,
On christmas day in the morning
