Good King Wenceslas Lyrics - Christmas - Mannheim Steamroller

Good King Wenceslas looked out 

On the feast of Stephen 

When the snow lay round about 

Deep and crisp and even 

Brightly shone the moon that night 

Though the frost was cruel 

When a poor man came in sight 

Gath'ring winter fuel 

"Hither, page, and stand by me 

If thou know'st it, telling 

Yonder peasant, who is he? 

Where and what his dwelling?" 

"Sire, he lives a good league hence 

Underneath the mountain 

Right against the forest fence 

By Saint Agnes' fountain."

"Bring me flesh and bring me wine 

Bring me pine logs hither 

Thou and I will see him dine 

When we bear him thither." 

Page and monarch forth they went 

Forth they went together 

Through the rude wind's wild lament 

And the bitter weather 

"Sire, the night is darker now 

And the wind blows stronger 

Fails my heart, I know not how, 

I can go no longer." 

"Mark my footsteps, my good page 

Tread thou in them boldly 

Thou shalt find the winter's rage 

Freeze thy blood less coldly."
