The Cambridge Carol Book/Babe Jesu, hear our ditty

by George Ratcliffe Woodward

IV. BABE JESU, HEAR OUR DITTY

Babe Jesu, hear our ditty,
And think thereof no scorn;
We pray Thee of Thy pity,
On this Thy natal morn:
We flee to Thee,
Who wast, in Bethlehem City,
Of Mary Maiden born:
For such as we.
