Wexford Carol - Katherine Jenkins

Good people all this Christmas-time

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

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 Saviour 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

Good people all this Christmas-time

Consider well and bear in mind

What our good God for us has done

In sending his beloved Son
