Lyrics: 

Transeamus usque Bethlehem et videamus hoc verbum quod factum est.  Mariam et Joseph et Infantem positum in praesepio.

Transeamus, audiamus multitudinem militiae coelestis laudantium Deum, Mariam et Joseph et Infantem positum in praesepio.

Gloria, Gloria in Excelsis Deo. Gloria, Gloria et in terra pax hominibus. Bonae voluntatis, et in terra pax. Transeamus et videamus quod factum est.

Translated Lyrics: 

Let us pass over unto Bethlehem, and let us see this Word, which was made, which the Lord hath shewn unto us.  And they went hastening: and they found Mary, and Joseph, and the Child placed in the manger.
