Celtic Woman - Wexford Carol songtekst
Je score:
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 "Arise 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 As long foretold upon that morn There was a blessed Messiah born (A traditional religious Irish Christmas carol originating from County Wexford, and specifically, Enniscorthy (whence its name), and dating to the 12th century!)
