Still Christmas Day so on time.

A fifteenth century carol which I rewrote in modern English and added a tune which I had written some years ago.

I Sing of a Maiden

I [G] sing of a maiden that was matchless
King of all kings for her son she [D] chose
He [C] came so [G] softly where his mother [D] was
As the [C] dew in [G] April falls [D7] on the [G] grass

I sing of a maiden that was matchless
King of all kings for her son she chose
He came so softly to his mother's bower
As the dew in April falls on the flowers

He came so softly where his mother lay
As the dew in April falls on the Spray
Mother and maiden ne'er one but she
Well may such a lady God's mother be.
