Good King Wencelas - lyrics

Lyrics:

Good King Wenceslas looked outOn the feast of StephenWhen the snow lay round aboutDeep and crisp and evenBrightly shone the moon that nightThough the frost was cruelWhen a poor man came in sightGathring winter fuel

Hither, page, and stand by meIf thou knowst it, tellingYonder peasant, who is he?Where and what his dwelling?Sire, he lives a good league henceUnderneath the mountainRight against the forest fenceBy Saint Agnes fountain.

Bring me flesh and bring me wineBring me pine logs hitherThou and I will see him dineWhen we bear him thither.Page and monarch forth they wentForth they went togetherThrough the rude winds wild lamentAnd the bitter weather

Sire, the night is darker nowAnd the wind blows strongerFails my heart, I know not how,I can go no longer.Mark my footsteps, my good pageTread thou in them boldlyThou shalt find the winters rageFreeze thy blood less coldly. In his masters steps he trod

Where the snow lay dintedHeat was in the very sodWhich the Saint had printedTherefore, Christian men, be sureWealth or rank possessingYe who now will bless the poorShall yourselves find blessing
