Lyricist:Irish Traditional
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 a humble oxen stall
Near Bethlehem did shepherds keep Their flocks of lambs and feeding sheep Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com 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 has foretold They did our Savior 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
