Bing Crosby - Good King Wenceslas

[00:07.38] Good King Wenceslas looked out
[00:10.11] On the Feast of Stephen
[00:13.10] When the snow lay round about
[00:16.56] Deep and crisp and even
[00:19.19] Brightly shone the moon that night
[00:22.80] Though the frost was cruel
[00:25.81] When a poor man came in sight
[00:29.50] Gathering winter fuel
[00:35.32] Hither, page, and stand by me,
[00:39.39] If thou knowst it, telling
[00:42.38] Yonder peasant, who is he?
[00:45.53] Where and what his dwelling?
[00:49.15] Sire, he lives a good league hence,
[00:51.92] Underneath the mountain
[00:54.83] Right against the forest fence
[00:58.10] By Saint Agnes fountain.
[01:03.89] Bring me flesh and bring me wine
[01:07.18] Bring me pine logs hither
[01:10.22] Thou and I shall see him dine
[01:13.41] When we bear them thither.
[01:16.72] Page and monarch, forth they went
[01:19.76] Forth they went together
[01:22.98] Through the rude winds wild lament
[01:26.38] And the bitter weather
[01:32.42] Sire, the night is darker now
[01:35.88] And the wind blows stronger
[01:38.99] Fails my heart, I know not how
[01:42.24] I can go no longer.
[01:45.72] Mark my footsteps, good my page
[01:48.79] Tread thou in them boldly
[01:52.00] Thou shall find the winters rage
[01:55.47] Freeze thy blood less coldly.
[02:02.28] In his masters step he trod
[02:05.52] Where the snow lay dinted
[02:08.58] Heat was in the very sod
[02:11.87] Which the Saint had printed
[02:15.55] Therefore, Christian men, be sure
[02:18.81] Wealth or rank possessing
[02:21.98] Ye, who now will bless the poor
[02:25.66] Shall yourselves find blessing.
