The Wexford Carol (韦克斯福德卡罗尔) - The Shannon Singers[00:00:00]

Good people all this Christmas-time[00:00:14]

Consider well and bear in mind[00:00:18]

What our good God for us has done[00:00:23]

In sending his beloved Son[00:00:27]

With Mary holy we should pray[00:00:32]

To God with love this Christmas day[00:00:36]

In Bethlehem upon that morn[00:00:41]

There was a blessed Messiah born[00:00:46]

The night before that happy tide[00:00:53]

The noble Virgin and her guide[00:00:57]

Were long time seeking up and down[00:01:02]

To find a lodging in the town[00:01:06]

But mark right well what came to pass[00:01:11]

From every door repelled alas[00:01:15]

As was foretold their refuge all[00:01:20]

Was but a humble ox's stall[00:01:25]

Near Bethlehem did shepherds keep[00:01:32]

Their flocks of lambs and feeding sheep[00:01:36]

To whom God's angel did appear[00:01:40]

Which put the shepherds in great fear[00:01:45]

Arise and go the angels said[00:01:50]

To Bethlehem be not afraid[00:01:54]

For there you'll find this happy morn[00:01:59]

A princely babe sweet Jesus born[00:02:04]

With thankful heart and joyful mind[00:02:11]

The shepherds went the babe to find[00:02:15]

And as God's angel had foretold[00:02:19]

They did our Saviour Christ behold[00:02:24]

Within a manger he was laid[00:02:29]

And by his side a virgin maid[00:02:33]

Attending on the Lord of Life[00:02:38]

Who came on earth to end all strife[00:02:42]

There were three wise men from afar[00:02:50]

Directed by a glorious star[00:02:54]

And on they wandered night and day[00:02:58]

Until they came where Jesus lay[00:03:03]

And when they came unto that place[00:03:07]

Where our beloved Messiah[00:03:12]

They humbly cast them at his feet[00:03:16]

With gifts of gold and incense sweet[00:03:21]
