The Huron Carol
"'Twas In The Moon Of Wintertime”
English Words by J. E. Middleton Original Huron words by Father Jean de Breabeuf
Music: Traditional 16th cent. French melody “Une Jeune Purcelle” (“A Young Maid”)
Em D Em
‘Twas in the moon of wintertime when all the birds had fled
Em D Em
That mighty Gitchi Manitou sent angel choirs in-stead
Em Am Bm Cmaj7 Em/G F#dim Bm7
Be-fore their light the stars grew dim & wandering hunters heard the hymn:
chorus: Em/G Cmaj7 D Em Cmaj7 D Cmaj7
Jesus, your king, is born; Je - sus is born!
D Em7 D Cmaj9 B Em
in ex - cel-sis glori-a
Em D Em
With-in a lodge of broken bark, the tender babe was found
Em D Em
A ragged robe of rabbit skin enwrapped his beauty round
Em Am Bm Cmaj7 Em/G F#dim Bm7
And as the hunter braves drew nigh, the angel song rang loud and high:
Em D Em
The earliest moon of wintertime is not so round and fair
Em D Em
As was the ring of glory on the helpless infant there.
Em Am Bm Cmaj7 Em/G F#dim Bm7
The chiefs from far be-fore him knelt with gifts of fox and beaver pelt:
Em D Em
O children of the forest free, o sons of Mani-tou
Em D Em
The holy child of earth and Heav'n is born this day for you
Em Am Bm Cmaj7 Em/G F#dim Bm7
Come kneel before the radiant boy who brings you beauty, peace & joy:
Em/G Cmaj7 D Em Cmaj7 D Cmaj7
Jesus, your king, is born; Je - sus is born!
D Em7 D Cmaj9 B Em
in ex - cel-sis glori-a
D Em7 D Cmaj9 B Em
Ie-sous a - ha - tonhi-a
