I Saw Three Ships

I saw three ships come sailing in
 On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
 I saw three ships come sailing in
 On Christmas Day in the morning.
 And what was in those ships all three,
 On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day?
 And what was in those ships all three,
 On Christmas Day in the morning?
 The Virgin Mary and Christ were there,
 On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
 The Virgin Mary and Christ were there,
 On Christmas Day in the morning.
 Pray, wither sailed those ships all three,
 On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
 Pray, wither sailed those ships all three,
 On Christmas Day in the morning?
 O they sailed into Bethlehem,
 On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
 O they sailed into Bethlehem,
 On Christmas Day in the morning
