LYRICS: O magnum mysterium, et admirabile sacramentum, ut animalia viderunt Dominum natum jacentem in praesepio: O beata Virgo, cujus viscera meruerunt portare Dominum Jesum Christum. Alleluia. (O great mystery and wonderful sacrament, that animals should see the new-born Lord lying in a manger: Blessed is that Virgin, whose womb deserved to bear Jesus Christ our Lord. Alleluia.) T. L. de Victoria (1548–1611) Words: Matin Responsory for Christmas Day The Cambridge Singers Christmas Album John Rutter selects some of his favourite Christmas carols, old and new, from classic Cambridge Singers recordings, including several of his own arrangements, closing with Vaughan Williams' majestic 'Fantasia on Christmas Carols'.
