Here We Come A-Caroling (The Wassail Song)

Here we come a-caroling

Among the leaves so green,

Here we come a-wandering

So fair to be seen.



Love and joy come to you,

And in Bethlehem Christ the Lord, too,

So we send you and wish you a happy new born King.

And we send you a happy new born King.



We are not daily beggars

That beg from door to door,

But we are neighbours' Jesus Christ

Whom you have seen before.



Love and joy come to you,

And in Bethlehem Christ the Lord, too,

So we send you and wish you a happy new born King.

And we send you a happy new born King.



But Master and Mistress,

As you sit by the fire,

Think of us poor Jesus Christ

Who wander in the mire.



Love and joy come to you,

And in Bethlehem Christ the Lord, too,

So we send you and wish you a happy new born King.

And we send you a happy new born King.



So bless the Master of this house,

Likewise the Christ was born;

And born in Bethlehem, Jesus Christ

That round eternal morn.



Love and joy come to you,

And in Bethlehem Christ the Lord, too,

So we send you and wish you a happy new born King.

And we send you a happy new born King.
