Good Christian Men Rejoice

Good Christian men, rejoice with heart and soul, and voice;
Give ye heed to what we say: News! News! Jesus Christ is born today;
Ox and ass before Him bow; and He is in the manger now.
Christ is born today! Christ is born today!

Good Christian men, rejoice, with heart and soul and voice;
Now ye hear of endless bliss: Joy! Joy! Jesus Christ was born for this!
He has opened the heavenly door, and man is blest forevermore.
Christ was born for this! Christ was born for this!

Good Christian men, rejoice, with heart and soul and voice;
Now ye need not fear the grave: Peace! Peace! Jesus Christ was born to save!
Calls you one and calls you all, to gain His everlasting hall.
Christ was born to save! Christ was born to save!

It¡¯s time to celebrate joy to the world. The season of wonder is here. More than a holiday, go spread the word Jesus the Savior has appeared. Rejoice again, I say rejoice. Hallelujah, hallelujah! Glory to God! Sing, ¡°Noel¡± Rejoice again, I say, rejoice. Hallelujah, Hallelujah! Christ is born, our Lord Emmanuel Let music fill the air, ring out the bells of goodwill and peace on the earth. Open your heart and share, love is here to dwell and hope has come in our Messiah¡¯s birth. Rejoice again, I say rejoice. Hallelujah, hallelujah! Glory to God! Sing, ¡°Noel¡± Rejoice again, I say, rejoice. Hallelujah, Hallelujah! Christ is born, our Lord Emmanuel 2008-12-09
I noticed today at my church, the lyrics to this song were changed to "Good Christian FRIENDS rejoice." Does the word "men" offend people nowadays?? Ed (estronski_AT_gmail_DOT_com) 2007-12-30
