Misc Christmas - The Wexford Carol - Текст песни

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

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 
Weet 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
As long foretold 
There was 
A blessed 
Messiah born
