Gregorian Chant
Puer natus est is the Introit for the third Mass of Christmas Day... As one might expect for the Mass of Christmas Day, the spiritual import of the chant is one of overwhelming joy at the birth of the Christ child and the theological ramifications of this birth. ([ Ссылка ])

TEXT
Puer natus est nobis, et filius datus est nobis:
cuius imperium super humerum eius:
et vocabitur nomen eius, magni consilii Angelus
Cantate Domino canticum novum:
quia mirabilia fecit.
Puer natus est nobis, et filius datus est nobis:
cuius imperium super humerum eius:
et vocabitur nomen eius, magni consilii Angelus
[Notum fecit Dominus salutare suum:
in conspectu gentium revelavit iustitiam suam.
Puer natus est nobis, et filius datus est nobis:
cuius imperium super humerum eius:
et vocabitur nomen eius, magni consilii Angelus ]

A child is born to us, and a Son is given to us:
Whose government is upon His shoulder:
and His Name shall be called, the Angel of Great Counsel.
Sing ye to the Lord a new canticle:
because Hehath done wonderful things.
A child is born to us, and a Son is given to us:
Whose government is upon His shoulder:
and His Name shall be called, the Angel of Great Counsel.
[The Lord has made known his salvation;
to all nations he has revealed his justice.
A child is born to us, and a Son is given to us:
Whose government is upon His shoulder:
and His Name shall be called, the Angel of Great Counsel.]
