[00:00.00]Wexford Carol - arranged by Chris Hazell - Bryn Terfel/Welsh National Opera Orchestra/Tecwyn Evans
[00:11.68]Good people all this Christmas time
[00:16.93]
[00:17.50]Consider well and bear in mind
[00:22.00]
[00:22.74]What our good God for us has done
[00:28.13]In sending his beloved son
[00:33.07]
[00:33.61]With Mary holy we should pray
[00:39.25]To God with love this Christmas day
[00:44.03]
[00:44.68]In Bethlehem upon that morn
[00:49.26]
[00:49.99]There was a blessed Messiah born
[00:55.65]
[01:06.59]Near Bethlehem did shepherds keep
[01:12.17]Their flocks of lambs and feeding sheep
[01:17.49]To whom God's angels did appear
[01:22.76]Which put the shepherds in great fear
[01:27.90]
[01:28.58]Arise and go the angels said
[01:33.63]
[01:34.30]To Bethlehem be not afraid
[01:39.24]
[01:40.04]For there you'll find this happy morn
[01:45.05]
[01:45.66]A princely babe sweet Jesus born
[01:51.60]
[02:01.72]There were three wise men from afar
[02:07.45]Directed by a glorious star
[02:12.84]And on they wandered night and day
[02:17.76]Until they came where Jesus lay
[02:22.87]And when they came unto that place
[02:28.37]Where our beloved Messiah lay
[02:33.30]
[02:33.97]They humbly cast them at his feet
[02:38.59]
[02:39.34]With gifts of gold and incense sweet
[02:45.07]
[02:55.46]With thankful heart and joyful mind
[03:00.15]
[03:00.71]The shepherds went the babe to find
[03:04.94]
[03:05.48]And as God's angel had foretold
[03:10.45]They did our Saviour Christ behold
[03:15.31]
[03:15.93]Within a manger he was laid
[03:20.27]
[03:21.10]And by his side a virgin maid
[03:26.03]
[03:26.96]Attending on the Lord of Life
[03:31.57]
[03:32.24]Who came on earth to end all strife
[03:37.55]
[03:39.96]Good people all this Christmas time
[03:45.56]Consider well and bear in mind
[03:50.20]
[03:50.91]What our good God for us has done
[03:56.37]In sending his beloved son
