Magnus Liber Organi

Natus Est Rex

A king is born

of the Virgin Mary,

salvation of the world,

the way of eternal life,

whom the undefiled and pious mother

brought forth.

O what joy goes forth

into the church

by reason of this birth,

the presence of Christ

and his grace

and grace.

He causes

heavenly joy.

They are destined

for the land.

The entrance is laid open.

Faithflessmess,

pride,

power,
the enemy is broken.

The entry
is restored.
The king, born
in a manner becoming to man,
gives entry
and, lost
and abandoned
to generation,
man is set free.

The world praises
a new king
with song
of new melodies.
He has brought us out
from the pool of darkness
and weight
of lingering woes.

Adam, whom the enemy
weakened and deceived,
had lost the kingdom
which God had given him,
and his grace
and grace.

He causes...

Now the words
of the prophets are fulfilled,
for unto us
a child God
is born,
as was testified by the holy scriptures,
for in his death
is the salvation of our souls....

First Adam
brought us to death.
Then he
returned us to life.
He has blessed the flesh,
taken on in a wondrous fashion,
he who is seated at the right hand
of the Father.

Because he has restored admittance
lost by the taste
It was neither a debt
nor our merit,
but only grace
and grace.

He causes....
