Loreena McKennitt - The Wexford Carol Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Good people all this Christmastime
  • Consider well and bear in mind
  • What our good God for us has done
  • In sending His beloved Son
  • With Mary holy we should pray
  • To God with love this Christmas day
  • In Bethlehem upon that morn
  • There was a blessed Messiah born
  • The night before that happy tide
  • The noble virgin and her guide
  • Were long time seeking up and down
  • To find a lodging in the town
  • But mark how all things came to pass
  • From every door repelled, alas
  • As long foretold, their refuge all
  • Was but an humble ox's stall
  • There were three wise men from afar
  • Directed by a glorious star
  • And on they wandered night and day
  • Until they came where Jesus lay
  • And when they came unto that place
  • Where our beloved Messiah was
  • They humbly cast them at His feet
  • With gifts of gold and incense sweet
  • Near Bethlehem did shepherds keep
  • Their flocks of lambs and feeding sheep
  • To whom God's angels did appear
  • Which put the shepherds in great fear
  • "Prepare and go," the angels said
  • "To Bethlehem, be not afraid
  • For there you'll find this happy morn
  • A princely babe, sweet Jesus born"
  • With thankful heart and joyful mind
  • The shepherds went the babe to find
  • And as God's angel had foretold
  • They did our savior Christ behold
  • Within a manger He was laid
  • And by His side the virgin maid
  • Attending on the Lord of life
  • Who came on earth to end all strife
