Verse 1

Em                               D
Christmas is now drawing near at hand
Em                                   D
Come serve the Lord and be at his command
Em                                D
And God a portion for you will provide
           C                Am     Em
And give a blessing to your soul beside

Verse 2

Em                                       D
Down in the garden where flowers grow in ranks
Em                                          D
Down on your bended knees and give the Lord thanks
Em                                         D
Down on your knees and pray both night and day
               C               Am       Em
Leave off your sins and live upright, I pray

Verse 3

Em                                 D
So proud and lofty is some sort of sin
Em                                    D
Which many take delight and pleasure in
Em                                 D
Whose conversation God doth not dislike
           C                Am        Em
And yet He shakes His sword before He strikes

Verse 4

Em                                D
So proud and lofty do some people go
Em                                      D
Dressing themselves like players in the show
Em                                       D
They patch and paint and dress with idle stuff
          C            Am         Em
As if God had not made them fine enough

Verse 5

Em                                      D
Even little children learn to curse and swear
Em                                 D
And can't recite one word of godly prayer
Em                                          D
Who'll teach them better or teach them to rely
              C               Am            Em
On Christ the sinner's friend who reigns on high
